Berlin state election (September 20, 2026): AfD receives more than 16.5% of votes cast

Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 15. September 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle

Probability

72%

Current polls (Politpro.eu, as of ca. September 14, 2026) show the AfD at 17.9% in Berlin — clearly above the 16.5% threshold. A drop of more than 1.4 percentage points from current polls would be required to miss the prediction. The AfD ranks third behind Die Linke (19.8%) and CDU (19.6%). No Berlin-specific Polymarket markets available; calibration based on Politpro.eu polling data. Note: the open MV prediction (AfD >30%) is separate; in Berlin the party is weaker but firmly double-digit.

Data basis for this prediction

Politpro.eu: AfD Berlin 17,9 % in Umfragen (ca. 14.09.2026)
Wikipedia: 2026 Berlin state election – Poll Tracker (15.09.2026)
Politpro.eu: Sitzprojektion Berlin Sep 2026 – AfD 27 Sitze von 150
Politpro.eu: Gesamtübersicht Berlin Sep 2026 (Linke 19,8 %, CDU 19,6 %, AfD 17,9 %, Grüne 16,1 %, SPD 12,9 %)

Verdict: Miss

Die AfD erzielte bei der Abgeordnetenhauswahl Berlin am 20. September 2026 laut Landeswahlleiter Berlin 16,3 % der Zweitstimmen — und verfehlte damit die Prognoseschwelle von 16,5 % knapp um 0,2 Prozentpunkte. Die Partei schnitt zwar besser ab als bei der vorherigen Wahl (+7,2 Prozentpunkte) und wurde drittstärkste Kraft hinter Die Linke (25,7 %) und CDU (18,8 %), blieb aber unter der definierten Schwelle.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP) secures parliamentary majority with Vox coalition and becomes Spanish Prime Minister — General Election 29 November 2026 (confirmed by Junta Electoral Central or AP by 1 December 2026)

Spain holds a general election on 29 November 2026. Polymarket prices Feijóo as next PM at 85%, Kalshi at 82% — both serve as anchors. A separate Polymarket market gives PP+Vox a 92% probability of a joint majority (>176/350 seats). Current polls (Sondaxe) show PP at 29.2% narrowly ahead of PSOE (26.9%); Vox is tracking slightly higher. Feijóo failed to form a government in 2023, but market odds reflect the lesson learned: PP+Vox is now seen as stable enough. No deviation from market anchor warranted.

Roger Wicker (Republican) retains the US Senate seat in Mississippi after recount — confirmed by AP or NBC News by 20 November 2026

With 97% of votes counted, Republican incumbent Roger Wicker leads by just 28 votes per NBC News live results (04.11.2026) — one of the closest Senate races in history. Mississippi election law requires an automatic recount when the margin falls below 0.5% of total votes, expected to conclude by 15–20 November. The remaining 3% of ballots originate primarily from rural precincts with historically higher Republican turnout, giving Wicker a slight statistical edge. No specific Polymarket market for Mississippi was identified.

Mary Peltola (Democrat) wins the US Senate seat in Alaska against Dan Sullivan (Republican) — US Midterm Elections November 3, 2026 (confirmed by AP or NBC News by November 5, 2026)

Polymarket gives Peltola a 72% win probability (as of November 3, 2026). The Democrat benefits from Alaska's Ranked Choice Voting system, which structurally favors cross-partisan candidates, as well as strong support from the Indigenous population and Alaska Native organizations. The national environment weighs on Sullivan: Polymarket gives Democrats a 72–77% probability of winning the Senate majority and 95% in the House. Early mail-ballot returns show a slight pro-Democratic lean in Alaska. Because Alaska uses ranked choice, a final count is not expected until November 5.
