·
Based on: Speculative
Bosnia-Herzegovina holds general elections on October 4, 2026. In Republika Srpska, SNSD has dominated the National Assembly since 2006. In the 2025 RS special presidential election, SNSD narrowly won 50.5% vs. SDS 48.1% — a clear sign of a tighter political landscape. The Troika–SNSD coalition collapsed in January 2025 after two EU accession laws failed, weakening SNSD's position. For the National Assembly (proportional multi-party system), SNSD has structurally broader support than in direct elections; however, the race remains competitive. No Polymarket market found. Europinion.uk characterises it as a 'familiar deadlock' — SNSD remains the largest force, without a majority.

President Aleksandar Vučić called snap parliamentary elections in Serbia for October 25, 2026. The SNS has held government continuously since 2012 and most recently received 46.1% of the vote in December 2023. The 2025/26 student movement has mobilized the opposition and is expected to push the SNS vote share to ~35–42%, but no unified opposition bloc has emerged. No direct Polymarket market available; Metaculus assigns 59–87% to the structurally dominant incumbent bloc in US elections, serving as a general incumbency reference. The SNS winning the most seats is the base case; whether with an outright majority or needing coalition partners remains uncertain.

Datafolha (September 22–23, 2026): Lula 40%, Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) 36%. Veritá (September 20, 2026): technical tie (Bolsonaro 38.9% vs. Lula 38.4%). Polymarket currently prices Bolsonaro's overall win probability at 56.2% and Lula's at 43% — this refers to the final outcome, not first-round rank. Since the open platform forecast has the race going to a runoff on October 25 (which Lula wins), Lula finishing first in round one is fully consistent with all existing platform forecasts. Lula leads by four percentage points in the most recent major poll.

France's National Assembly has been deeply fragmented since the 2024 elections — no bloc holds an absolute majority. According to Cassandra's already-open forecast, Lecornu will invoke Article 49.3 for the PLF 2027 by October 2026, triggering a 24-hour window for a censure motion (RN + NFP/LFI votes). Historical base rate: Borne, Attal, and Barnier have averaged under 14 months in office since 2022. A censure motion most recently fell only narrowly short. With an ongoing budget crisis and weak economic sentiment (Consumer Confidence in recession territory), the risk of political gridlock rises. No Polymarket markets available for this specific event; calibration based on French PM survival rate 2022–2026: ~42% probability of leaving office by March 31, 2027.
