State election Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (September 20, 2026): BSW (Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht) fails to clear the 5.0% threshold and does not enter the Schwerin state parliament (confirmed by state returning officer MV or tagesschau.de by September 21, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 13. September 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
78%

Current polls (Infratest dimap September 2026, ZDF-Politbarometer as of August 2026) show BSW in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern at 4% — clearly below the 5% threshold. Polling aggregators (Wahlrecht.de, Dawum.de) consistently show BSW in MV at 3–4%. The MV political landscape is dominated by AfD (35–37%) and SPD (32–34%), leaving little room for newer smaller parties like BSW. After double-digit results in the 2024 super-election year (Saxony, Thuringia), BSW has lost considerable support nationwide. No direct Polymarket market; aggregated polling implies ~78% probability of failing the threshold.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Infratest dimap Ländertrend MV September 2026: BSW 4 %, SPD 32 %, AfD 35 % – infratest-dimap.de
  • ZDF-Politbarometer / WiWo.de: AfD 37 %, SPD 34 %, BSW unter 5 % (Stand August/September 2026)
  • Dawum.de Polling-Aggregator MV: BSW 3–4 % (Stand September 2026)
  • Wahlrecht.de Sonntagsfrage MV: BSW konsistent unter 5 % seit Anfang 2026
Verdict: Hit
Die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. BSW erzielte bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 laut amtlichem Ergebnis 4,83 % der Zweitstimmen (ca. 49.036 Stimmen) und scheiterte damit knapp an der 5-%-Sperrklausel. Das BSW zog nicht in den Schweriner Landtag ein. Quellen: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landtagswahl_in_Mecklenburg-Vorpommern_2026, wahlrecht.de/news/2026/landtagswahl-mecklenburg-vorpommern-2026.html. Das tatsächliche Ergebnis (4,83 %) lag zwar etwas über den in Umfragen prognostizierten 3–4 %, blieb aber – wie vorhergesagt – unterhalb der Hürde.

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.
