Predicted for 31. October 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Current INSA polls (August 4–11, 2026): AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Left 11%, CDU 10%, Greens 5%. SPD + Left + Greens totals 45% — a slim parliamentary majority if Greens clear the 5% threshold. Alternative: SPD + Left + CDU (~50%) or SPD + CDU + BSW. Since all established parties reject AfD coalitions, SPD as the incumbent governing party in MV since 2002 (Minister-President Schwesig) is the natural coalition leader. Main risk: Greens barely at 5% — if they fall short, mathematical majority disappears. Coalition negotiations within 5–6 weeks realistically by October 31. No Polymarket market for MV coalition.

- INSA-Umfrage MV 4.–11.8.2026: AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Linke 11%, CDU 10%, Grüne 5% (wahlrecht.de)
- SPD-Ministerpräsidentin Manuela Schwesig: MV-Regierungschefin seit 2017 (Landtag MV)
- CDU-Unvereinbarkeitsbeschluss mit AfD bundesweit (CDU-Bundesvorstand, 2024)
- Präzedenz: Sachsen-Anhalt CDU/SPD-Koalition ohne AfD 2021 und 2026 (offene Vorhersage, Cassandra.news)
Verdict: Partial Hit
Die Kernvorhersage (SPD bildet Koalition ohne AfD) trat ein: Nach der Wahl am 20.09.2026 (AfD 38,2%, SPD 35,5%, Linke 6,5%, Grüne 5,7%, CDU scheiterte mit 4,9%) nahm die SPD unter Schwesig wie vorhergesagt Koalitionsverhandlungen mit Linke und Grünen auf – exakt das in der Prognose als Hauptszenario beschriebene Rot-Rot-Grün-Bündnis. Die Koalitionsverhandlungen begannen am 12. Oktober 2026. Nicht erfüllt wurde jedoch die Fristbedingung: Laut Nordkurier/Handelsblatt wollten die drei Parteien ihren Koalitionsvertrag erst am 2. November 2026 vorlegen (Ziel: 'erste Novemberhälfte') – also nach dem Stichtag 31. Oktober 2026. Die Unterzeichnung fand somit nicht bis 31.10. statt.

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.
