Predicted for 13. September 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Current polls (Polara, as of July 2026) show Liberalerna (L) at just 1% — far below Sweden's 4% electoral threshold. The party is part of the Tidökoalitionen government (M, SD, KD, L) under PM Ulf Kristersson but has been losing relevance for years. Falling below 4% would deprive the Tidö coalition of its parliamentary majority: the right bloc polls ~44% versus ~47% for the left bloc. About 7 weeks remain until the 13 September election; recovering from 1% to ≥4% would require trebling vote share — historically rare in Swedish short-term polling trends. No Polymarket market for Sweden 2026; own calibration 72%.
Data basis for this prediction
- Liberalerna Umfragewert: 1 % (Polara.se Dashboard, Stand Juli 2026)
- Rechter Block ~44 % vs. linker Block ~47,2 % (Polara.se, Stand Juli 2026)
- Schwedische Riksdagswahl 2026: 13. September 2026 (Valmyndigheten / Wikipedia)
Verdict: Miss
Liberalerna überwand die 4-Prozent-Hürde deutlich und zog mit 19 Mandaten (≈5,1–5,4 % der Stimmen, +0,7 Prozentpunkte gegenüber 2022) in den Riksdag ein – mehr Sitze als zuvor (2022: 16). Die Vorhersage beruhte auf einem Polara-Umfragewert von 1 % (Juli 2026), der sich als massiver Ausreißer erwies. Im Endresultat gehörte L zu den acht Parteien, die die Sperrklausel überschritten, und die Tidökoalition (M+SD+KD+L) erzielte mit ≈49,9 % der Sitze eine knappe Mehrheit.

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.
