Berlin polls consistently show the AfD at 17–19% (Wikipedia/wahlrecht.de overviews, as of August/September 2026). The 14% threshold is ~3–5 points below the polling center and would be very unlikely to miss even with an unusually large negative polling error. The Polymarket market for Berlin AfD (9.3% market price) most likely refers to 'AfD becoming the strongest party' — a much higher bar. The open prediction 'CDU strongest party' is consistent with AfD at 17–19%.

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. No exchange market found for this threshold; calibrated at 72%.

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.

BSW polls at just 3.4% per politpro.eu aggregate (as of September 2, 2026) in Berlin — around 1.6 percentage points below the 5% threshold. No recent Berlin poll shows BSW exceeding 4%. Given stable polling underperformance and typical Berlin polling tolerance (±1.5pp, 4 weeks before the election), entry into the Abgeordnetenhaus is very unlikely. No Polymarket market for Berlin-BSW available.

FDP polls at 3.1% per politpro.eu aggregate (September 2, 2026) in Berlin — nearly 2 percentage points below the 5% threshold. Following the federal coalition collapse in 2024 and poor results in the 2025 federal election, FDP is in structural crisis. In Berlin, FDP has consistently failed to mobilize beyond single-digit territory in recent years. No Polymarket market for Berlin-FDP.

Current polls (Infratest dimap Aug 26-31; Forsa Aug 21-27; INSA Aug 4-11; weighted average as of September 3, 2026) show AfD at 35.9% vs SPD at 30.0%. The ~6 percentage point lead is stable across pollsters. This would be the first time since the founding of the Federal Republic that a far-right party wins a state election in MV. No direct Polymarket market available; own estimate based on three independent polling institutes.

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.

Current Berlin polls (September 2026) show Die Linke at 20% narrowly ahead of CDU (19.7%), AfD (17.8%), Greens (17%), and SPD (12.1%). BSW (3.7%) and FDP (3.1%) are below the threshold. Polymarket gives Die Linke ~43–44% as the most likely election winner — an increase after the withdrawal of CDU top candidate Kai Wegner. The gap of only 0.3 percentage points to CDU is within the polling margin of error (±2–3%), creating substantial uncertainty. The dual condition (>19.0% AND strongest party) raises the bar: a strong CDU or AfD result on election day could displace Die Linke from the top spot even if it achieves >19%. Compatible with all existing Berlin predictions on the platform.

BSW achieved 11–16% at 2024 eastern German state elections (Saxony, Thuringia, Brandenburg). No current MV-specific polls were found; based on eastern German voter-structure patterns, BSW tends well above 5%. The 7% threshold clears the electoral threshold but sits below typical BSW results in comparable eastern states. No prediction market available; classified speculative. Existing Cassandra MV predictions cover only AfD, SPD, and CDU.

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.

The AfD received only 9.2% at the 2023 Berlin state election. Since then the AfD has gained significantly nationally — at the 2025 federal election it stood at ~21% nationwide. East Berlin's peripheral districts are also traditionally AfD-affine. Current poll aggregators place the AfD in Berlin for 2026 at ~14–18%, meaning the probability of exceeding the >16% threshold is approximately 55–60%. The existing prediction for the Berlin election (Linke strongest party >19%, BSW <5%, FDP <5%) arithmetically leaves enough room for an AfD result of 16–20% that is compatible with the Linke primacy result. No Polymarket contract; calibrated from 2025 federal result and Berlin regional polls.

The most recent poll (Infratest dimap for NDR, July 2–6, 2026) shows the SPD at 29% under Minister-President Manuela Schwesig, behind the leading AfD (36%) but well ahead of CDU (9%) and Linke (12%). Historically strong in MV (39.6% in 2021). A fall below 25% by election day would require a swing of over 4 points from the July level. The Schwesig incumbency premium provides additional protection.

In the 2021 State Duma elections, United Russia won 324 out of 450 seats (72%). The party exercises near-total control over media, electoral authorities, and candidate registration. Despite economic pressures from sanctions and war costs, state-measured approval sits above 55%. Historically, United Russia has secured a supermajority in all Duma elections since 2003. A result below 300 seats would be a historic outlier requiring extreme political upheaval currently not in evidence. Metaculus consensus: >90% probability of party dominance.

BSW polls at 3.5-4.0% in all current Berlin surveys: PolitPro tracker (Sept 4, 2026) shows 3.8%, Infratest dimap likewise below 5%. Urban western-German Berlin lacks the structural base for a BSW late surge. No Polymarket market available; given the 1.2-1.5pp gap below the threshold, probability of failing the hurdle is estimated at ~79%.

Current Berlin polls show SPD between 11% (Infratest dimap, Sep 2026) and 12.4% (PolitPro aggregate, Sep 4). The expected value sits just above 12%. The party is squeezed within the left bloc by Die Linke (existing prediction: >19%) and Grünen (>14%). The 12.0% threshold lies right at the boundary of the diverging poll range – the PolitPro aggregate places them above it, Infratest below. No Polymarket contract for specific Berlin percentages.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is a traditionally left-leaning eastern German state. Die Linke received 9.9% in the 2021 state election and roughly 10% in the 2021 Bundestag vote in MV. Voter migration to BSW (predicted >7% in MV) erodes the Linke base, but the party has historically shown resilience above the 5% threshold in eastern Germany. Current MV-specific polls are sparse; national trends show Die Linke weak nationwide but more stable in eastern states.

Current polls (t-online.de/Ipsos, August/September 2026) show Die Linke at 20–22%, clearly ahead of CDU (~19%) and AfD (~18%), followed by Greens (15%) and SPD (13%). Top candidate Elif Eralp is mobilizing the progressive urban voter segment. No two-party majority is arithmetically feasible; three-party coalitions possible with or without Die Linke. Risk: narrow gap (~2–3 points) to CDU and AfD; polling fluctuations could flip the outcome. No Polymarket market.

All current polls consistently show BSW at 3–4%: Infratest dimap (Sep 3, 2026): 4%; Forsa (Sep 2, 2026): 4%; INSA (Aug 13, 2026): 4%. Dawum.de aggregate: BSW 4%. A recovery of >1 percentage point by election day is unlikely given the uniform data and current federal trend for BSW. Historical analogy: BSW already failed to enter the Saxony-Anhalt state parliament (September 6, 2026, confirmed) and several other state parliaments in 2025/26. Polymarket implied probabilities treat a BSW entry as very unlikely.

Tagesspiegel Berlin polling aggregate (Sep 4, 2026): Greens at 16.0%. The 13.0% threshold is 3 points below polling, outside the +/-1.5–2.5% typical error margin. In the 2023 Berlin election the Greens collapsed to 9.4% (coalition sentiment); since recovered nationally (EP election 2026: ~14%). Berlin's urban electorate is traditionally Green-friendly.
