Predicted for 6. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
The FDP is polling at approximately 3% in Saxony-Anhalt (wahlrecht.de, dawum.de, as of August 2026) — far below the 5% threshold. Structurally weak in eastern German states since the 2025 federal election collapse, the party has no regional mobilisation base. wahlrecht.de no longer tracks the FDP separately in SA. Entry to parliament is practically ruled out; implied probability from polling data exceeds 88%.
Data basis for this prediction
- wahlrecht.de: SA-Umfragen August 2026 – FDP ~3 %, nicht mehr separat ausgewiesen
- dawum.de: SA Wahlumfragen, Stand August 2026
- bpb.de: Hintergrund Sachsen-Anhalt-Wahl 2026, Parteienanalyse
- Yahoo Nachrichten DE: 'Wahlumfrage sieht AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt vorn', August 2026
Verdict: Hit
[Vorzeitig entschieden] FDP erhielt 2,4–2,5 % und scheiterte klar an der 5%-Sperrklausel. Quelle: ZDF-Hochrechnung, wahlrecht.de

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.
