ELECTION BETTING STILL ILLEGAL IN WEST VIRGINIA

Election betting is still against the law in West Virginia. National reports say Kalshi and Polymarket took in more than one billion dollars in online wagers on today’s general election. West Virginia Deputy Secretary of State Deak Kersey says betting on elections is a misdemeanor here. Anyone found guilty can be fined up to 50-dollars. West Virginia has not seen election betting in more than a century.
