FDP fails to clear the 5% threshold at the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election (September 20, 2026) and does not enter the state parliament (confirmed by State Returning Officer MV or tagesschau.de)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 31. August 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
78%

Current polls (Wahlrecht.de, dawum.de, t-online) show the FDP at approximately 4% for the MV state election 2026, clearly below the 5% threshold. The FDP is not currently represented in the Schwerin state parliament and has historically rarely cleared the barrier in MV. The gap to the 5% mark (~1 percentage point) comfortably exceeds typical polling variance. No Polymarket market found; own estimate ~78% based on stable polling positions.

Data basis for this prediction
  • t-online.de: MV-Wahl 2026 Umfrage – FDP bei ca. 4 %, BSW ebenfalls unter 5 % (August 2026)
  • Wahlrecht.de: Sonntagsfrage Landtag MV – FDP ca. 4 %, AfD 36 %, SPD 29 % (August 2026)
  • Wikipedia: Landtagswahl MV 2026 – FDP nicht im aktuellen Schweriner Landtag vertreten
Verdict: Hit
Die FDP erzielte bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 lediglich 1,03 % der Zweitstimmen – weit unter der vorhergesagten ~4 % und deutlich unter der 5 %-Sperrklausel. Das endgültige Ergebnis wurde vom Landeswahlleiter Dr. Christian Boden am 30. September 2026 bestätigt (Quelle: laiv-mv.de, politik-mv.de). Die Vorhersage trat damit klar ein; das tatsächliche Ergebnis fiel sogar noch schwächer aus als erwartet. Überraschend war hingegen, dass auch CDU (4,9 %) und BSW (4,8 %) an der Hürde scheiterten.

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.
