TREE NEWS reports: Prediction markets give Democrats a 92% chance of winning the House and 67% of the Senate one week before the Nov. 3 US midterm elections, with Polymarket projecting 236 House seats for Democrats and Kalshi 234. Trump’s approval rating edged up 1 point to 32%, and Democrats lead Republicans 47% to 36% among registered voters in an Oct. 26 Reuters/Ipsos poll. Crypto and AI-linked stocks could face short-term pressure if Democrats sweep both chambers, while a Republican hold would likely lift CLARITY Act prospects.
Prediction Markets Put Democrats at 92% to Win House One Week Before Midterms
The gap between the House and Senate odds is the real signal here: markets are treating a Democratic House as close to settled while leaving the Senate genuinely contested, which is where the policy risk actually concentrates. For crypto, the binary framing matters less than the sweep scenario — divided government likely preserves the status quo, whereas a clean sweep is what the item flags as pressure on crypto and AI-linked equities. Whether the Senate number converges toward the House figure over the final week is the open question worth watching.
