By Benzinga
Vice President Kamala Harris‘s upcoming CNN interview is stirring up more than just political interest, as prediction markets on Polymarket reveal fascinating insights into public expectations.
What Happened: Set for Aug. 29 at 9 p.m. ET, this primetime special is becoming a focal point for both political analysts and market speculators.
The interview, taking place in Georgia during Harris’s strategic bus tour of the swing state, is positioned as a pivotal moment in the campaign season.
It bridges the gap between the recent Democratic National Convention in Chicago and the highly anticipated presidential debate scheduled for Sep. 10 in Philadelphia.
Polymarket’s data paints a compelling picture of what viewers might expect from the Vice President’s appearance.
Abortion rights top the list of anticipated topics, with an 83% likelihood of being addressed.
This aligns with the ongoing national dialogue surrounding reproductive rights and could potentially impact various sectors, including healthcare and legal services.
Border issues follow closely, with an 86% probability of discussion, reflecting its prominence in current political discourse and its potential implications for international relations and domestic policy.
The conversation around democracy, carrying a 77% likelihood, is particularly noteworthy. As digital assets and blockchain technology continue to reshape our understanding of governance and financial systems, Harris’s stance on democratic principles could have far-reaching consequences.
Other topics garnering significant attention include ceasefire discussions (72% likelihood), Project 2025 (74%), and Palestine/Palestinian issues (62%).

These geopolitical concerns highlight the global context in which domestic politics operate and may offer insights into future international economic policies.
Inflation, with a 65% chance of being addressed, remains a key economic concern.
Harris’s comments on this issue could provide valuable indicators for investors and financial analysts, particularly those interested in the evolving landscape of digital assets and their role in hedging against inflation.
Interestingly, the market assigns only a 5% probability to Harris discussing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, despite their prominence in many corporate and educational settings.
As the campaign intensifies, this CNN appearance is expected to set the tone for the final stretch leading up to the November election.
Its potential impact extends beyond mere political ramifications, touching on economic policies, technological advancements and global relations.
