Predicted for 20. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
BSW polls at just 3.4% per politpro.eu aggregate (as of September 2, 2026) in Berlin — around 1.6 percentage points below the 5% threshold. No recent Berlin poll shows BSW exceeding 4%. Given stable polling underperformance and typical Berlin polling tolerance (±1.5pp, 4 weeks before the election), entry into the Abgeordnetenhaus is very unlikely. No Polymarket market for Berlin-BSW available.
Data basis for this prediction
- politpro.eu Berlin Wahltrend 2. Sep 2026: BSW 3,4 % (politpro.eu/de/berlin)
- Dawum.de Berlin Sonntagsfrage Aggregat: BSW stabil 3–4 % (alle Umfragen Sep 2026)
- Wikipedia: '2026 Berlin state election' — BSW in allen jüngsten Umfragen unter 4 %
- Historische Berliner Umfragetoleranz letzte 4 Wochen vor Wahl: ±1,5 pp (2021/2023)
Verdict: Hit
BSW erzielte bei der Abgeordnetenhauswahl Berlin am 20. September 2026 laut übereinstimmenden Quellen (Wikipedia, ZDF heute, wahlrecht.de, kommunalwiki.boell.de) 4,7 % der Stimmen und scheiterte damit knapp an der 5 %-Sperrklausel. Der Einzug ins Abgeordnetenhaus blieb ihnen verwehrt – die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. Allerdings schnitt BSW mit 4,7 % deutlich besser ab als das Umfrageaggregat (3,4 %, Stand 2. Sep 2026) erwarten ließ; das Ergebnis lag rund 1,3 Prozentpunkte über dem prognostizierten Wert, dennoch unterhalb der entscheidenden Hürde.

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.

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.

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.
