[Unable to Be Reviewed Before the 2026 Midterm Elections, U.S. Congressman Proposes Ban on Candidates Betting on Their Own Election Results] Odaily Planet Daily News – U.S. Representative Don Davis from North Carolina has introduced the 'Prohibition on Betting on One's Own Election Act,' which aims to prohibit federal election candidates, campaign teams, and their spouses and children from buying, selling, or holding political event contracts related to their own elections. Violators could face a civil fine of up to $10,000 per instance or be required to forfeit three times the potential profits. Since the U.S. Congress is currently in recess until after the midterm elections in November, the bill cannot be reviewed before the 2026 midterm elections.
