We clearly don't have enough information about what went down, but betting on political outcomes should be legal. In my opinion, at least. If you can bet on a sports game, you should be allowed to bet on an election.

Election betting is legal. But that doesn't mean it's unregulated (which Polymarket is).

Would be very meta to bet on the outcome of the subsequent criminal proceedings.
