Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) wins the Brazilian presidential runoff against Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) (October 25, 2026, confirmed by TSE by October 26, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 4. September 2026 · Predicted for 25. October 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle

Probability

55%

The runoff race is extremely tight: Quaest (September 2, 2026) shows Lula 42% vs. Bolsonaro 41% — a statistical tie. AtlasIntel/Bloomberg shows Lula 49.2% vs. 42.9%. Neither Polymarket nor Kalshi have reliable runoff odds yet. Lula's structural advantage lies in broader coalition party support (PT network, approval of state social programs among low-income voters) and incumbency. Flávio Bolsonaro mobilizes his father Jair's network. The race remains open — a Lula counting result is marginally more likely than the opposite.

Data basis for this prediction

Quaest/Bloomberg (2. Sept. 2026): Lula 42%, Flávio Bolsonaro 41%
AtlasIntel/Bloomberg: Lula 49,2% vs. Bolsonaro 42,9% (Stichwahl-Szenario, Sept. 2026)
Al Jazeera: Lula hält knappe Führung vor Brasilien-Wahl (Aug. 2026)
Rio Times Online: Brazil 2026 Poll Tracker (Sept. 2026)

Verdict: Hit

Die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. Lula (PT) gewann die Stichwahl am 25. Oktober 2026 mit 51,74% der gültigen Stimmen gegen Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) mit 48,21%. Das TSE verkündete das offizielle Ergebnis noch am Wahlabend bzw. am 26. Oktober 2026. Quellen: TSE (tse.jus.br), NPR, CNN, CNBC. Bemerkenswert: Bolsonaro hatte den ersten Wahlgang am 4. Oktober 2026 noch knapp gewonnen (~47% vs. ~45%), doch Lula holte im zweiten Durchgang auf — historisch erstmals in der brasilianischen Demokratie seit 1989. Der vorhergesagte strukturelle Vorteil Lulas (Koalitionsbreite, Sozialbasen) erwies sich als entscheidend.

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.
