Based on: Statistical Pattern
The PolitPro election trend for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern places Die Linke at 11.2% (September 2026). A Forsa poll (via Yahoo News/Tagesspiegel) confirms a level around 11%. In the last state election in 2021, Die Linke received 9.9%. In eastern German states, Die Linke has historically stronger roots than nationally; MV was long a Linke stronghold. The > 9.5% threshold is about 1.7 percentage points below the poll average, providing a buffer against systematic polling overestimation.

Verdict: Miss
Die Linke erzielte bei der Landtagswahl in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 lediglich 6,5 % der Zweitstimmen (66.381 Stimmen) – deutlich unterhalb der Vorhersageschwelle von 9,5 %. Das entspricht einem Verlust von 3,4 Prozentpunkten gegenüber 2021 (9,9 %). Die Partei verpasste damit trotz Einzug in den Landtag (via Direktmandate, 5 Sitze) die 5 %-Hürde regulär nur knapp. Das Ergebnis liegt rund 4,7 Prozentpunkte unter den Umfragewerten (≈11 %), die der Prognose zugrunde lagen – ein massiver Umfrageüberhang, der die Puffermarge von 1,7 Pp. bei weitem überstieg.

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.
