Offset is putting real money on Keisha Lance Bottoms. The Atlanta rapper posted his Kalshi position to his Instagram story on Monday, $5,000 on Bottoms to win Georgia governor, one day before the state votes.
The slip he posted has her priced at a 70 percent chance, with a max payout of $6,995.94 if she wins. His whole review of the race fit in one line.
“I like my odds on keisha”
Offset, on his Instagram story
Bottoms is the former Atlanta mayor running against Republican businessman Rick Jackson. The polls call it a coin flip, with one recent Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll putting Jackson up a single point, while the prediction market likes Bottoms by a lot more than that. If she pulls it off, she becomes Georgia’s first woman governor and the first Black woman elected governor in the country.
Offset is not the only rapper treating Election Day like a betting slip. 42 Dugg posted his own Kalshi play on the Michigan Senate race last week, and his fans mostly told him to call the gambling hotline.
Offset gets his answer Tuesday night, same as everybody else in Georgia. Either Bottoms wins and his $5,000 turns into almost $7,000, or the state hands him a $5,000 lesson in civics.
