Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 13. September 2026 · Predicted for 31. October 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle

Probability

78%

According to SVT and TV4/Novus exit polls on election night (September 13, 2026), the center-left bloc (SAP 28.4%, V 8.0%, MP 7.4%, C 7.5%) wins approximately 51.3% of votes, projected at 183 of 349 Riksdag seats (majority threshold: 175). Ulf Kristersson's right-wing government (M+SD+KD+L) receives only ~46.8% (166 seats). Polymarket showed 66% for Andersson before polls closed — the exit polls justify a higher estimate, as no mathematically viable government mandate remains for Kristersson. Typical Swedish government formation takes 2–6 weeks; a Riksdag Speaker's vote by October 31 is realistic.

Data basis for this prediction

SVT Exit Poll 13.09.2026: SAP 28,4 %; Mitte-links-Bloc 183 Sitze / 349 (svt.se)
TV4/Novus Exit Poll: SD 18,5 %, Centerpartiet 9,0 % (tv4.se, 13.09.2026)
Polymarket: Andersson als Premierministerin 66 % (Stand Wahlabend 13.09.2026, polymarket.com)

Verdict: Miss

Die Vorhersage trat nicht ein. Obwohl das Mitte-links-Bündnis die Wahl am 13. September 2026 knapp gewann (176 vs. 173 Sitze) und Kristersson zurücktrat, scheiterte Andersson bei der entscheidenden Riksdag-Abstimmung am 15. Oktober 2026: Sie erhielt nur 99 Ja-Stimmen (ausschließlich der eigenen SAP-Fraktion) bei 248 Gegenstimmen – alle anderen sieben Fraktionen stimmten dagegen. Grund: Die vier Parteien des linken Blocks konnten sich nicht auf eine gemeinsame Regierungszusammensetzung einigen. Andersson versuchte daraufhin, eine reine sozialdemokratische Minderheitsregierung durchzusetzen, was scheiterte. Am 19. Oktober wurde Centerpartiets Vorsitzende Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist mit der Regierungsbildung beauftragt, die ebenfalls bis 26. Oktober scheiterte. Bis zum Stichtag 31. Oktober 2026 war somit keine neue Premierministerin gewählt.

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.
