The most recent Insa poll for Nordkurier (fieldwork 13 Aug 2026) puts AfD with lead candidate Leif-Erik Holm at 36%, SPD (Minister-President Manuela Schwesig) at 29% — a 7-point gap. dawum.de and t-online.de show consistent polling. A 7-point SPD catchup by 20 September would be a historically extraordinary trend break. No explicit prediction market found. The existing open Cassandra predictions (FDP, Greens, BSW failing threshold, SPD >24%) are consistent with AfD as the strongest party.

Current polls (Wahlrecht.de, dawum.de, t-online) show the FDP at approximately 4% for the MV state election 2026, clearly below the 5% threshold. The FDP is not currently represented in the Schwerin state parliament and has historically rarely cleared the barrier in MV. The gap to the 5% mark (~1 percentage point) comfortably exceeds typical polling variance. No Polymarket market found; own estimate ~78% based on stable polling positions.

At the 2021 MV state election, voter turnout was 70.8% – the highest since 1998, well above 65%. The 2026 election is highly polarized: the AfD is polling as the strongest party at ~28% according to WahlForecast.de and Dawum.de, with the SPD at ~22%. Such a contest historically generates high mobilization both by AfD supporters and in counter-mobilization. Historically, turnout at state elections with clear anti-AfD mobilization dynamics (e.g., Saxony 2024: 74.4%) has been well above 65%. No prediction market found for turnout; probability based on historical data: 78%.

INSA survey (Nordkurier, August 2026): Die Linke MV at 11%. The 9% threshold is 2pp below the current poll. At the 2021 MV election Die Linke received 9.9% — the historical base supports the 9% hurdle as non-trivial. The possible red-red-green coalition option (SPD + Linke + Grüne = 45% per INSA) gives Die Linke voters a tactical mobilization incentive. Risks: BSW polls at 4% in MV (below the 5% threshold, so its votes are lost), which could attract tactical Linke voters; conversely, BSW's failure strengthens Die Linke as the left alternative. No MV-specific Polymarket markets.

The current INSA poll (August 4–11, 2026) puts the AfD in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern at 36%. The state is an AfD stronghold: Saxony-Anhalt polls show 42% (PolitPro, Aug 2026); in Thuringia and Saxony the AfD exceeded 30% in 2024 state elections. With a 3-percentage-point buffer below the polling average, the 33% threshold is solidly calibrated. No Polymarket market for M-V AfD available; methodology: eastern German cross-comparison and current polling aggregate.

The current PolitPro election trend (September 8, 2026) shows AfD Berlin at 17.9% – well above the 16.0% threshold. For comparison: AfD received only 9.1% in the 2023 repeat election. The ~8.8 percentage-point increase reflects federal migration trends and mobilization gains. With a typical ±2pp forecast confidence band, the lower bound is ~15.9%; the probability of the final result exceeding 16.0% is ~77%. No direct Polymarket contract found for this threshold.

The CDU received 13.3% in the 2021 MV election — its historic low in the state. Open platform predictions have AfD as leading party and SPD above 24%, pointing to a realistic CDU range of 14–18%. A drop below 13% would be unprecedented in MV's electoral history. Calibrated probability of exceeding 13.0%: ~76%.

PolitPro Trend Berlin (8 Sep 2026): Grüne 16.1%. INSA poll (4 Sep 2026): 15%. The Berlin Greens have clearly recovered from their 2023 slump (9.4%) and are stable at 15–16%. Both current surveys sit well above the 14.0% threshold. BSW polls at only 3.6% (PolitPro) and is unlikely to enter parliament. Standard poll uncertainty discount gives 76%.

The CDU polls at a stable 9–10% for the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election (infratest dimap, INSA, August 2026). The 8.5% threshold is roughly 0.5–1.5 pp below current poll levels. Historical deviations between the final poll and the result in German state elections average under 2 pp; a CDU result below 8.5% would require an unusual collapse. Per polls, CDU ranks 3rd–4th behind AfD (>33%) and SPD (>28%), but is clearly set to enter the Landtag. No Polymarket market for this specific data point.

Latest INSA poll for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (August 13, 2026): AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Die Linke 11%, CDU 10%, Grüne 5%, BSW 4%, FDP 3%. The 33.0% threshold sits 3 percentage points below the poll average — a robust buffer by eastern German state election standards. This would be the first time in the state's history that the AfD overtakes the SPD, which has governed Mecklenburg-Vorpommern under Minister-President Schwesig since 2017. No direct Polymarket market found. Historical context: AfD achieved comparable results in Saxony (32.1%, 2024) and Thuringia (32.8%, 2024); MV polling at 36% sits structurally above this level. Risk: MV's historically strong SPD base (SPD 2021: 39.6%) could boost tactical SPD voting, pushing AfD below 33%.

The FDP won 5.8% in MV's 2021 state election, barely clearing the threshold. Since then, the party has seen dramatic national decline: the coalition split (end-2024) and failure to clear the 5% threshold in the Bundestag election 2025. Current national polls place FDP at ~3–4%; in eastern Germany – where FDP has historically polled lower – results are likely weaker still. This platform already predicts FDP failing the 5% threshold in the simultaneous Berlin Abgeordnetenhaus election (also 20 September). MV as a more rural eastern state has historically delivered even lower FDP results. No MV-specific polls found for September 2026.

PolitPro Trend MV (9 Sep 2026): CDU 9% – a historic low, massively down from 13.3% in the 2021 state election. AfD dominates (~32%), SPD is second (~22%). The 12% threshold sits 3 percentage points above the trend; only an exceptionally strong last-minute CDU mobilization could upset this prediction. Calibration: 74%.

Current Berlin polls (late August / early September 2026) show Grüne at 15-17%, comfortably above the 14.0% prediction threshold. The Greens have structural strength in Berlin (urban young voters in Pankow, Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Charlottenburg). Despite some erosion from the 2023 result of 18.9%, falling below 14% when three independent polls show 15%+ is unlikely. No Polymarket market for Berlin party results found.

The SPD polls at 30.0% ahead of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election (September 20, 2026) per PolitPro.eu/Wikipedia (as of September 2026; AfD 35.9%, Linke 11%, CDU 9%, Greens 5%). MV is traditionally an SPD stronghold (2021: 39.6%). The threshold of 27.0% sits 3 points below the poll average. Assuming N(30; 3.5²): P(X>27) ≈ 80%. No specific Polymarket market available. Risk: a major AfD surge due to local events could demobilize SPD voters; structural SPD weakness nationwide.

All current polls show AfD consistently at 35–37% as the leading party ahead of SPD (28–32%): Infratest dimap (September 3, 2026): AfD 35%, SPD 32%; Forsa (September 2, 2026): AfD 37%, SPD 28%; INSA (early September 2026): AfD 36%, SPD 29%. The gap is 5–9 percentage points. CDU (8–10%) is not a viable alternative winner. The Saxony-Anhalt comparison (AfD strongest party prediction was a miss as CDU won with 37.1%) counsels caution, but in MV there is no strong CDU alternative: CDU polls at only 8–10%, far from a surprise result. No Polymarket contract available; independent calibration 73%.

Infratest dimap (early September 2026) puts the SPD in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern at ~32%, Forsa at approximately 28–30%. All available polls show SPD above the 28% mark. AfD leads at ~35% (Infratest) to ~37% (Forsa). Historically, polls in eastern Germany slightly underestimate the AfD and overestimate the SPD — an SPD result somewhat below the current polling average (~32%) is more likely than an overperformance. Even with a 3–4 point discount, SPD would still clear 28%. Already covered: AfD above 30%, CDU below 12%, BSW below 5%. No market odds; own estimate: ~73%.

PolitPro trend shows SPD at 12.8%, Infratest-dimap at 13%, Forsa at 15% – polling average ~13.3%. Berlin is historically an SPD stronghold (always above 15% since 1989), even though the party currently ranks 5th in 2026 (behind Linke 20%, CDU 19%, AfD 18%, Grüne 15%). A sub-12% result would be a historically unprecedented Berlin SPD collapse. Risk comes from polling error (±2–3pp) and potential turnout weakness.

The CDU still received 28.2% at the 2023 Berlin state election and provided governing mayor Kai Wegner. Existing predictions for the same election see Die Linke as the strongest party (>19%), Greens >14%, SPD >12% — indicating substantial CDU erosion. Nevertheless, a CDU collapse below 15% seems unlikely: even at its historic low in 2011 (17.6%), the CDU remained well above that threshold. Current poll aggregators place Berlin CDU 2026 in the 15–20% range, with the lower bound at ~16%. No Polymarket contract; calibrated from 2023 result and political shifts.

Current Berlin polls (politpro.eu, Sept 4–9, 2026) show Die Linke at 19–20%. The 17% threshold is 2–3 points below the polling average. Berlin's demographics (strong East Berlin base, high renter share, historically left-urban) provide structural support. Open platform predictions cover SPD, AfD, CDU, and Greens — but not Die Linke.

Current polls for the MV state election consistently show BSW at approximately 4%, clearly below the 5% threshold (bundestagwahlumfrage.de, dawum.de, t-online.de). The FDP is at 2–3%, also without a realistic chance. Historically, a catch-up of more than one percentage point for a minor party in the final weeks is possible but unlikely.

First-round polls (PolitPro, August 22, 2026) show RN at ~35%, NFP at ~24%, Ensemble at ~14%. Despite this strong position, an absolute majority in the second round remains historically difficult: in 2024, a coordinated 'Barrage républicain' (NFP and Ensemble withdrawing strategically) prevented an RN majority. In 2026 similar tactical withdrawals are likely — NFP and Ensemble combined at ~38% have sufficient candidates in three-way constituencies to block RN.

BSW (Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht) polls at only 4% (INSA/Nordkurier, Aug 4-11, 2026) or 4% (Infratest dimap, July 6, 2026); PolitPro trend (September 1, 2026): 4.1%. This places BSW clearly below the 5% threshold. By comparison, the identical situation is documented in Saxony-Anhalt (simultaneous election on September 6). Main risk (−30%): Sahra Wagenknecht personal campaign appearances in the final sprint can mobilize +1-2 percentage points (established from Thuringia/Saxony 2024 elections). A BSW result of 5.0-6.0% is possible if the party mobilizes late. Forecast is compatible with existing MV predictions (FDP fails, Greens fail) — no substantive duplicate.

The current PolitPro poll trend for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (as of September 6/7, 2026) shows SPD at around 30% – 4 points above the 26% threshold. SPD has governed for decades and is structurally embedded in MV; in 2021 it received 39.6%. Even a historically unusual 14-point drop from 2021 would still leave SPD at ~26%.

Current polls (wahlrecht.de, dawum.de, Ipsos) show the FDP in Berlin at 4% – just below the 5% threshold. t-online.de explicitly reports: 'BSW and FDP worry about entering parliament.' After the 'Ampel' collapse, the FDP's brand image is particularly damaged in Berlin; voters are migrating to the CDU (19%) and Greens (15%). Historically, parties at 4% in the final poll aggregate clear the 5% hurdle in German state elections in fewer than 30% of cases. The BSW (also at 4%) is already predicted on the platform as failing – the FDP faces the identical situation.

Current polls for the MV state election show the SPD under Minister-President Manuela Schwesig at 29% (INSA, August 13, 2026; confirmed by Infratest dimap/NDR, July 2026: also 29%).

The election date for the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election is officially set for September 20, 2026 (source: State Parliament MV, LAIV MV). In current polls, the AfD in MV stands at approx. 33–38%, well ahead of the SPD (~22%) and CDU (~18%). MV was historically an SPD stronghold (2021: SPD 39.6% vs. AfD 17.7%); the mood shift since 2024 has been massive. Nationally, the AfD leads in eastern German states at ~40%. While other parties forming a coalition without the AfD is likely (firewall principle), this does not change the forecast for the AfD's vote share.

The PolitPro election trend for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern places Die Linke at 11.2% (September 2026). A Forsa poll (via Yahoo News/Tagesspiegel) confirms a level around 11%. In the last state election in 2021, Die Linke received 9.9%. In eastern German states, Die Linke has historically stronger roots than nationally; MV was long a Linke stronghold. The > 9.5% threshold is about 1.7 percentage points below the poll average, providing a buffer against systematic polling overestimation.
