Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election (20 September 2026): FDP fails the 5% threshold and does not enter the state parliament (confirmed by state returning officer MV)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 28. August 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
87%

Forsa (24 August 2026) measures the FDP in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern at 3% – 200 basis points below the threshold. Infratest dimap (9 July 2026) also shows the FDP clearly below the bar. The FDP has not been in the Schwerin parliament since 2011 and has failed to clear 5% in any MV election since then. The structural loss of liberal voters in eastern Germany to AfD and BSW leaves no trend reversal in sight. No dedicated prediction market available; historical evidence and current polling support a probability >85%.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Forsa MV-Landtagswahl-Umfrage: FDP 3% (24. August 2026, t-online.de)
  • Infratest dimap MV: FDP unter 5% (9. Juli 2026)
  • MV Landtagswahl 2021 Ergebnis: FDP 2,0%, nicht im Landtag (Landeswahlleiter MV)
Verdict: Hit
Die Vorhersage ist vollständig eingetreten. Die FDP erhielt bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 lediglich 1,0 % der gültigen Zweitstimmen und scheiterte damit deutlich an der 5%-Sperrklausel. Sie verlor alle 5 Sitze aus der Wahl 2021 und ist nicht im neuen Landtag vertreten. Das endgültige amtliche Ergebnis wurde am 30. September 2026 vom Landeswahlleiter Dr. Christian Boden bestätigt.

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.
