Probability

47%

BSW posted strong results in the 2024 eastern German state elections (Thuringia 15.8%, Saxony 11.8%, Brandenburg 13.5%), but the national trend has since declined sharply. An open platform prediction expects BSW to fail the 5% threshold in Saxony-Anhalt (September 6, 2026). Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is structurally different: an SPD stronghold with traditionally stronger left-leaning voter dispositions — Wagenknecht's positions on peace negotiations and social justice may resonate more in M-V's rural constituencies than in SA. The Polymarket market on BSW (M-V) exists only for 'BSW wins the most seats' (0.1%) — clearing the threshold is a far lower bar. Without current M-V-specific polls, the estimate is conservative at 47%.

Data basis for this prediction

BSW Ergebnisse 2024: Thüringen 15,8%, Sachsen 11,8%, Brandenburg 13,5% (Bundeswahlleiter 2024)
Polymarket: 'BSW gewinnt meiste Sitze M-V' = 0,1%; AfD 87,5%, SPD 13,5% (26.08.2026)
Offene Vorhersage Plattform: BSW scheitert an 5%-Sperrklausel in Sachsen-Anhalt (6. Sept. 2026)
M-V Landtagswahl 20. September 2026 (Landeswahlleiter Mecklenburg-Vorpommern / Wahlrecht.de)

Verdict: Miss

BSW erhielt bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 lediglich 4,8 % der Zweitstimmen – knapp unter der 5 %-Sperrklausel – und zog damit nicht in den Landtag ein. Die Vorhersage (Einzug ins Parlament) trat nicht ein. Als Hauptursache gilt der bundesweit weiter anhaltende Rückgang des BSW-Trends seit den ostdeutschen Wahlen 2024; selbst die strukturellen Vorteile M-Vs (stärkere Linksorientierung, ländliche Wahlkreise) reichten nicht aus, um die Hürde zu überwinden.

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.
