Laurie Buckhout, the Republican nominee for North Carolina’s 1st Congressional District, has been suspended from the prediction market platform Kalshi for three years and fined over $2,500 after betting on her own race.
Kalshi announced the suspension on Monday, saying Buckhout had violated the platform’s rules for placing a bet on her own campaign after announcing her candidacy. The platform noted that Buckhout cooperated with its inquiry into the trading activity.
