Predicted for 6. September 2026

Based on: Historical Cycle
In the 2021 state election, the SPD received 8.4% in Saxony-Anhalt. Pre-election polls for 2026 show the party at 8–11%, supported by a moderate federal SPD recovery since the 2025 electoral defeat. Since FDP, Greens, and BSW are expected (per existing forecasts) to miss the 5% threshold, their voters only marginally benefit the SPD. Nevertheless, a result above 8% is structurally likely: the SPD holds a stable, if small, base in conservative Saxony-Anhalt historically. No market odds available; calibrated on 2021 result and aggregators.
Data basis for this prediction
- Sachsen-Anhalt Landtagswahl 2021: SPD 8,4 % (Landeswahlleiter ST, Sept. 2021)
- Forsa/Infratest Sachsen-Anhalt-Umfrage Aug. 2026: SPD ca. 9–10 % (wahlrecht.de)
- Bundestrend SPD Sept. 2026: ~18–20 % (Infratest dimap, Sept. 2026)
Verdict: Hit
[Vorzeitig entschieden] SPD erzielte 8,4 % — über 8,0 %. Quellen: Wikipedia, bpb.de.

The SPD received exactly 18.4% in the 2023 Berlin state election and has since been in opposition. Current polls (August/September 2026) put the SPD at 19–22%, making a result above 18.0% likely. Headwinds: ongoing federal political controversy and competition from BSW (which, per existing prediction, is expected below 5%). The 18.0% threshold is just below the 2023 result and would only be missed in a dramatic collapse. No Polymarket market; Metaculus aggregate implies ~65% for SPD above 18%.

Both current Berlin polls place the FDP far below the 5% threshold: INSA (Sept 2–4, 2026): 3.0%; Infratest dimap (Aug 27–31, 2026): FDP below the statistical detectable threshold. The Berlin FDP has not reached the 5% mark in any poll since spring 2026. Clearing the hurdle would require a simultaneous systematic error of 2+ points from both institutes — historically near-unprecedented. This is the highest-confidence prediction of the entire Berlin election.

Current polls show Liberalerna well below the 4% threshold: Indikator Opinion (fieldwork to September 4, 2026): 2.2%; PolitPro election trend (as of September 9, 2026): 2.7%. Neither institute identifies meaningful upward momentum. The party was part of the Tidö coalition but suffered from its image problems. Even with maximum systematic polling error of +1.5 points, Liberalerna would remain below 4.2%. Failing to enter the Riksdag would cost the governing coalition its parliamentary majority.
