Predicted for 13. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Current polls (August 2026) show the Social Democrats (S) at ~33%; the Moderaterna (M) poll at ~19–21%. The ~12–14 percentage-point gap is structural. The Red-Green opposition bloc leads at 52–55% versus the Tidö governing bloc at 42–46%. Polymarket and Metaculus imply a government change with ~70–75% probability. The existing open prediction reads 'S exceeds 30.0%'; this prediction focuses on the relative ranking (largest single party) – a technically distinct measure that could be true even with a narrow result below 30% if M falls further.

Verdict: Hit
Die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. Socialdemokraterna (S) erhielt bei der Riksdag-Wahl am 13. September 2026 laut Valmyndigheten 28,02 % der Stimmen (1.886.535 Stimmen, 99 Mandate) und war damit die stärkste Einzelpartei – trotz eines leichten Rückgangs von −2,3 Prozentpunkten gegenüber 2022. Die Moderaterna lagen deutlich dahinter. Das links-grüne Oppositionsbündnis (S, MP, V, C) errang mit 176 Mandaten eine knappe Mehrheit gegenüber dem Tidö-Block mit 173. Die Vorhersage fokussierte bewusst auf die relative Rangposition (nicht auf eine Schwelle von >30 %), was sich als richtig erwies: S wurde mit 28 % stärkste Kraft, auch wenn sie die 30 %-Marke verfehlten.

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.

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.

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.
