Arizona attorney general charges Kalshi with 20 misdemeanours over event bets
Arizona’s attorney general filed a 20-count criminal complaint against Kalshi, alleging it accepted wagers from state residents on sports, player performance and election outcomes between 14 December 2025 and 12 March 2026. The complaint includes 16 Class 1 and four Class 2 misdemeanour counts; Kalshi had separately sued Arizona officials over the application of state gambling laws to its event contracts.
The charges put Kalshi’s Arizona sports and election markets at risk while the legal status of its event contracts is disputed.
