Missouri Amendment 3 fails — voters reject abortion ban

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 4. October 2026 · Predicted for 3. November 2026 · Based on: Ongoing Event
Probability
82%

Missouri voters will decide on Amendment 3 on November 3, 2026 — a legislatively referred measure that would reverse the abortion rights enshrined by voters in 2024 and impose a broad abortion ban. Kalshi rates the probability of Amendment 3 passing at 14–19% (as of early October 2026), implying a rejection probability of ~81–86%. Polling shows 43% support, 44% opposition (±3 margin of error). Since the Dobbs ruling in 2022, US voters have rejected abortion restrictions at state level in seven consecutive votes (Kansas, KY, MT, MI, VT, CA, OH) — a robust historical trend. No specific Polymarket market found for this ballot measure.

Parti Québécois (PQ, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon) wins at least 60 of 125 seats in Quebec's National Assembly — provincial election 5 October 2026 (confirmed by Élections Québec by 6 October 2026)

The 1 October 2026 Léger poll places PQ at 29% (PLQ 25%), a clear lead. The vote-scope.com seat-projection model (50,000 simulations) shows a median of 66 PQ seats; the 60-seat threshold corresponds to roughly the 25th percentile of that distribution. No Polymarket market for Quebec 2026 found. The majority threshold is 63 seats (125-seat Assembly; platform's existing open prediction targets ≥64). A ≥60 prediction is fully consistent with the existing platform prediction (PQ ≥64) and adds information: it resolves TRUE even in a near-miss majority scenario. CAQ collapse (<10 seats) and PLQ recovery (≥30 seats) are already captured in separate open predictions.

Parti Libéral du Québec (PLQ) wins at least 30 seats in the National Assembly — Quebec provincial election October 5, 2026 (confirmed by Élections Québec by October 6, 2026)

All leading electoral models position the PLQ as the second-strongest party behind the PQ. 338Canada (as of October 3, 2026) projects 39 seats as its central estimate (90% CI: 33–44), PoliWave projects 34 seats, and 127QC 35–36 seats. The PLQ was polling at 25–26% of votes (Léger, October 1, 2026). The prediction market Lines.com assigns 65.5% probability to PLQ winning ≥ 28 seats; Cassandra calibrates the slightly higher bar of 30+ seats at 65%, as the lower tail of the model range does not fully rule out a sub-30-seat outcome.

James Talarico (Democratic Party) wins the US Senate seat for Texas against John Cornyn (Republican) in the 2026 midterm elections (election day 3 November 2026, confirmed by AP or NBC News by 4 November 2026)

Polymarket gives Talarico 61% (as of 4 October 2026) — a remarkable figure for a Democratic candidate in Texas, a Republican stronghold since the 1990s. John Cornyn (senator since 2002, term ending January 2027) faces his third re-election bid. The national trend strongly favors Democrats: Polymarket assigns 93% for a House majority and 63% for a Senate majority. Talarico benefits from demographic shifts (urban and Latino voters, metros Dallas/Houston/Austin) and above-average small-dollar fundraising. No significant counter-indicator in current data. Own estimate follows market: 61%.
