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.

Die Linke won 9.9% in MV's 2021 state election. Nationally the party collapsed to ~3.5% in 2025. MV is arguably the party's last eastern stronghold. The open platform prediction puts BSW below 5% in MV, reducing direct competition for left-leaning voters. No MV-specific September 2026 poll retrievable; extrapolation from eastern German trends suggests a borderline 5–7% range. Assessment: ~50/50, slight lean toward clearing the threshold given structural voter anchoring in MV.

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%.

The Berlin election on September 20, 2026 is a historically tight three-way race: Infratest dimap (rbb, September 2026): CDU 21%, Linke 19%, Grüne 18%, AfD 18%, SPD 11%. Civey/Tagesspiegel (August 31): Linke 20%, CDU 19%, AfD 18%, Grüne 15%, SPD 13%. CDU leads in most aggregated polls, narrowly ahead of Linke and AfD, always within statistical margin of error. Since no prediction market publishes Berlin frontrunner probabilities, the poll aggregate serves as the basis: CDU ranked first in 3 of the 4 most recently published polls. Implied distribution: CDU ~50%, Linke ~30%, AfD ~20% chance of first place.

Current Berlin polling (as of September 2026) shows the AfD consistently at ~17–18% in an extremely tight four-way contest with Die Linke (19–22%), CDU (~19–20%), and Greens (15–18%). The 16.0% threshold is clearly below the polling average; a miss would require systematic polling overestimation of the AfD. No prediction market available; polling base rate implies ~65% probability for AfD >16%.

Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) polls at 3.6% in Berlin (politpro.eu, early September 2026) – 1.4 points below the 5% threshold. Even accounting for ±2% polling error, entry remains unlikely. None of the existing open Berlin election predictions covers BSW. Confirmed by Landeswahlleiter Berlin or tagesschau.de by September 21, 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%.

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%.

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. A 2-point buffer makes the prediction well-cushioned.

Current polls (Infratest Dimap MV September 2026) show AfD at 35%, SPD at 32%. The 30% prediction threshold sits 5 points below the polling average. AfD has polled consistently above 30% in MV since spring 2026. Open platform predictions cover MV (FDP fails 5%; SPD >20%) but not the AfD result itself. Missing the threshold would require an unlikely collapse.

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 poll average for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (aggregated August 2026): BSW at 4.1% — below the 5% threshold. One individual survey (Civey, June 2026) showed 8.0%, indicating high variance. BSW has no established state chapter in MV and weak local infrastructure. Nationally BSW polls at ~5–6%, but in MV, where SPD and AfD dominate, mobilization potential is significantly lower than in Thuringia or Brandenburg (BSW there 15.8% resp. 13.5% in 2024). The 'BSW fails 5%' scenario is most probable, but uncertain.

Die Linke is in decline in eastern German states: Saxony 2024 — 4.5% (failed), Brandenburg 2024 — 3.0% (failed). BSW (Wagenknecht) has absorbed a large share of traditional Linke voters in MV. The open platform prediction for MV already expects BSW to land below 5% — if even BSW struggles after absorbing Linke voters, Die Linke itself is structurally weaker still. Nationally Die Linke polls at 2–3% (INSA/Forsa August 2026). In MV 2021 they received ~9.9%, but the collapse since then has been dramatic. No specific MV 2026 polls found; inference from comparable eastern state elections.

The most recent INSA poll for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (field period 4-11 August 2026, via Nordkurier/dawum.de) shows CDU at 10%. For CDU to fall below 5%, it would need to halve its current polling — an unprecedented collapse in this state. BSW (4%) and FDP (3%) are the realistic candidates to miss the threshold; CDU explicitly is not. CDU has always exceeded 10% in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (2021: 28.8%; 2016: 19.0%). Estimated probability: 88%.

Latest INSA polls show the Greens at exactly 5% in MV (as of June 2026), gaining +1 point from earlier surveys (t-online.de, August 2026). The party is right at the parliamentary threshold. In the 2021 state election, the Greens narrowly missed with 4.4%. In eastern German rural states, Green support is structurally low; the trend can still shift before September. This prediction deliberately goes against the dominant East German trend: the razor-thin 5% mark makes this a genuine bet.

Latest INSA poll for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (August 4–11, 2026, 1,000 respondents): FDP 3% – well below the 5% threshold. The FDP has not been represented in the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state parliament since 2011 (2021 result: 2.4%). Nationally, the FDP has struggled chronically in eastern Germany since the coalition collapse (late 2024) and loss of Bundestag seats (2025). A +2 pp recovery in four weeks without a clear mobilisation trigger is statistically unrealistic. Very high forecast confidence; residual uncertainty buffer for unexpected late polling swings and election-day turnout.

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. No specific Polymarket market; calibration based on electoral system logic and historical precedent.

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%.

Current Insa poll (August 2026): AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Die Linke 11%, CDU 10%. The SPD won 39.6% in 2021—their best state result since reunification—and is traditionally the dominant force in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern under Minister-President Schwesig. May 2026 polls showed 23–27%; more recent (August) measurements tend towards 29%. The 25% threshold lies well below the polling average. A late AfD surge could actually mobilise SPD voters, further securing the 25% mark.

All three current polls consistently place the AfD at 35–36%: INSA (August 13, 2026): 36%; Infratest dimap for NDR (July 9, 2026): 36%; INSA (June 22, 2026): 35%. The AfD is MV's strongest party, leading SPD (incumbent under MP Schwesig, 28–29%) by ~7 points. No prediction market available. Historically AfD results in MV track closely with polling averages. The 35.0% threshold sits just below the polling average of 35.7%, yielding a conservative assessment.
