Swedish Riksdag Election (September 13, 2026): Liberalerna (L) fails to clear the 4% threshold and does not enter the Riksdag

Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 7. September 2026 · Predicted for 13. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
77%

Current polls place Liberalerna well below the 4% threshold: Infostat (fieldwork through September 1) and PolitPro trend (September 6) show L at only 2.0–2.5%. That is far below their 2022 result (4.7%) and makes a jump to 4% within the remaining days unlikely. Existing open forecasts project 7 parties above the threshold; Liberalerna is not among them. Main risk: last-minute tactical voting surge, which historically shifts outcomes by at most 0.5–1.0 percentage points in Swedish elections.

Data basis for this prediction
  • PolitPro Wahltrend Schweden: Liberalerna 2,5 % (Stand 06.09.2026, politpro.eu)
  • Infostat Umfrage (Erhebung bis 01.09.2026): Liberalerna ~2,0 % (politpro.eu)
  • Riksdag-Wahl 2022: Liberalerna 4,7 % – aktueller Trend zeigt Halbierung (Valmyndigheten 2022)
Verdict: Miss
Liberalerna erzielte laut übereinstimmenden Quellen (SVT Valresultat, Riksdagsvalet 2026 Wikipedia, valresultatet.se) rund 5,4 % der Stimmen und gewann 19 von 349 Riksdag-Sitzen – klar über der 4 %-Sperrklausel. Die Vorhersage beruhte auf Umfragewerten von 2,0–2,5 %, die sich als massiv zu niedrig erwiesen. Ursache war offenbar genau das genannte Hauptrisiko: eine drastische Mobilisierung taktischer Wähler in der Schlussphase, die weit über die veranschlagten 0,5–1,0 Prozentpunkte hinausging. Schlagzeilen wie 'L över spärren i Valun: Herrejävlar' (SVT) deuten auf eine überraschende Aufholjagd hin. Liberalerna verbesserte sich sogar gegenüber 2022 (4,6 %).

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.
