The Democratic Party (USA) wins the majority in the US House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections (November 3, 2026) and nominates the Speaker

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 16. July 2026 · Predicted for 3. November 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
83%

Polymarket (as of July 14, 2026) gives Democrats an 85% chance of winning the House. Democrats lead the generic ballot by 5–6 points (June 2026). Historically, the incumbent's party loses ~25 House seats in midterms; Republicans hold ~220 seats, so a loss of 3–4 seats flips the majority. Headwinds for Republicans: PPI +6.2% YoY, Hormuz crisis, weak consumer sentiment. Risk: gerrymandering, possible economic recovery by November. Senate race is separate (Polymarket: 55% Republicans retain Senate).

Data basis for this prediction
  • Polymarket: Demokraten gewinnen US-Repräsentantenhaus 2026 = 85 % (Stand 14.07.2026)
  • TradeTheOutcome / Polycopy: Democrats 85 % House majority, Generic Ballot D +5–6 Punkte (Juli 2026)
  • BLS: US PPI Juni 2026 +6,2 % YoY – Inflationsdruck belastet Trumps Zustimmung (15.07.2026)
  • Real Clear Politics: Aktuelle Sitzverteilung Repräsentantenhaus R: ~220 / D: ~215 (16.07.2026)

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.
