Republican Party wins US Senate majority at the 2026 Midterm Elections (Election Day November 3, 2026, confirmed by AP or NBC News by November 7, 2026)

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 25. September 2026 · Predicted for 3. November 2026 · Based on: Speculative
Probability
57%

Kalshi prices the Republican Party at 57% for Senate majority (total 2026 election market trading volume exceeds $750M, as of September 24–25, 2026). Competitive races in Texas, Maine, Michigan, Alaska, Iowa, Ohio and Nebraska determine the outcome. Historically midterms benefit the opposition party against the sitting administration — an advantage for Republicans. The House is predicted separately in favor of Democrats; a split Congress (Senate GOP, House Democrats) is consistent with both predictions. Kalshi market-implied probability: 57% for Republican Senate majority.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Kalshi: 57 % für Republikanische US-Senatsmehrheit (25. September 2026)
  • CNN Politics: 'The first prediction-market election scrambles the midterms' – $750M+ Handelsvolumen (24. September 2026)

Suverēnā vara (SV) receives more than 10.0% of votes cast in the Latvian parliamentary election (Saeima, October 3, 2026, confirmed by Latvijas Centrālā vēlēšanu komisija or LETA by October 4, 2026)

Suverēnā vara (SV) polls at 10.2% (+7.0 percentage points vs. 2022) in the September 25, 2026 PolitPro election trend, placing it exactly at the 10% threshold. Typical Latvian polling margins of ±2–3 percentage points leave the outcome open. For context: Progresīvie (12.3%) and JV (7.0%) are covered by existing open predictions; SV is currently unpredicted. No specific prediction market data for SV. No contradiction with the open 'LPV highest vote share' prediction (LAS leads at 23.4%, LPV at 12.7% in polls).

Latvian parliamentary election (Saeima, October 3, 2026): At least 6 parties exceed the 5% threshold and win seats (confirmed by Latvijas Centrālā vēlēšanu komisija or LETA by October 4, 2026)

The PolitPro election trend for the Latvian Saeima election (as of September 2026) shows seven parties clearly above the 5% threshold: Apvienotais saraksts (23.4%), Latvia First/LPV (12.7%), Progresīvie (12.3%), SV (10.2%), ZZS (9.5%), Nacionālā Apvienība (9.1%) and Jaunā Vienotība (7.0%). In the 2022 election, six parties entered the Saeima. The main risk for this prediction is that two or more parties currently just above the threshold — especially Jaunā Vienotība (7.0%) — fall below 5% on election day. Polymarket sees Apvienotais saraksts as the clear winner (96% for most seats).

France's Lecornu government invokes Article 49.3 of the Constitution to pass the 2027 budget draft (PLF 2027) (by October 31, 2026, confirmed by Assemblée nationale or Reuters by November 1, 2026)

PM Lecornu leads a fragile minority coalition. France's 10-year OAT yield exceeded 4.5% in September 2026 for the first time since 2008 (CNBC, Sept 24, 2026). France already used Article 49.3 to pass the 2024 and 2025 budgets after two predecessor governments fell. The PLF 2027 is typically introduced in late September/early October; the NFP-RN opposition majority has signaled it would reject the draft. Without a constructive majority, 49.3 is the only constitutional tool for passage. No direct prediction market; historical repeat-usage rate supports 58%.
