Predicted for 20. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Current poll average for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (aggregated August 2026): BSW at 4.1% — below the 5% threshold. One individual survey (Civey, June 2026) showed 8.0%, indicating high variance. BSW has no established state chapter in MV and weak local infrastructure. Nationally BSW polls at ~5–6%, but in MV, where SPD and AfD dominate, mobilization potential is significantly lower than in Thuringia or Brandenburg (BSW there 15.8% resp. 13.5% in 2024). The 'BSW fails 5%' scenario is most probable, but uncertain.
Data basis for this prediction
- MV Wahlumfragen Aggregat August 2026: BSW Ø 4,1% (politpro.eu / Wahlkreisprognose, mehrere Institute)
- Civey Einzelumfrage MV Juni 2026: BSW 8,0% (Hochausschlag, Civey)
- BSW Thüringen September 2024: 15,8%; BSW Brandenburg September 2024: 13,5% (Landeswahlleiter)
- Offene Vorhersagen MV: AfD >30%, SPD >25%, SPD-Koalition ohne AfD (Cassandra.news)
Verdict: Hit
BSW erzielte bei der Landtagswahl in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 laut Wikipedia und ZDF-Ergebnissen 4,8% der Zweitstimmen und verfehlte damit knapp die 5%-Sperrklausel – der Einzug in den Landtag gelang nicht. Die Vorhersage (Scheitern an der Sperrklausel) trat ein. Bemerkenswerterweise scheiterte auch die CDU mit 4,9% – ein historisches Novum.

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.
