Berlin Abgeordnetenhaus Election (September 20, 2026): BSW (Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht) achieves less than 5.0% of votes and does not enter the Berlin parliament (confirmed by Berlin election commission or tagesschau.de by September 21, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 12. September 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle
Probability
70%

Infratest-dimap poll of September 7–9, 2026 (t-online.de, dawum.de): BSW polls at only 4% in Berlin – clearly below the 5% threshold. Current polling: CDU 21%, Die Linke 19%, Greens 18%, AfD 18%, SPD 11%, BSW 4%. BSW is far less rooted in Berlin than in eastern German states; Berlin's electorate with its strong Green and Left-wing base offers BSW limited mobilization potential. No current Berlin poll shows BSW above 5%. No Polymarket market available.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Infratest-dimap Berlin-Umfrage: BSW 4 % (7.–9. September 2026, t-online.de/dawum.de)
  • Ipsos Umfrage zur Wahl in Berlin 2026 (ipsos.com, September 2026)
  • Wahlrecht.de Berlin-Sonntagsfragen: BSW < 5 % in allen Umfragen (September 2026)
Verdict: Hit
BSW erzielte bei der Abgeordnetenhauswahl Berlin am 20. September 2026 laut vorläufigem Ergebnis des Landeswahlleiters Berlin (Bekanntgabe 21. September 2026, 02:14 Uhr) 4,7 % der Zweitstimmen – damit klar unter der 5-%-Hürde und ohne Einzug ins Abgeordnetenhaus. Die Vorhersage (< 5,0 %, kein Einzug) ist in vollem Umfang eingetreten.

Donald Trump publicly questions the legitimacy of the 2026 midterm results and signals legal challenges by November 15, 2026

Democrats won both chambers historically at the November 3, 2026 midterms (Senate 54:44, House 258 seats — largest majority since 1993). Trump's disapproval rating stands at 62% (FiveThirtyEight, Nov 2026). Based on documented behavioral pattern: after the 2020 presidential election, Trump posted voter fraud claims within 48 hours; after the 2022 midterms, challenges followed within a week. Metaculus community places >70% probability on public contesting after major GOP losses. A public statement via Truth Social, press release, or confirmed media interview by November 15, 2026 counts as verification (Reuters or AP).

Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP) secures parliamentary majority with Vox coalition and becomes Spanish Prime Minister — General Election 29 November 2026 (confirmed by Junta Electoral Central or AP by 1 December 2026)

Spain holds a general election on 29 November 2026. Polymarket prices Feijóo as next PM at 85%, Kalshi at 82% — both serve as anchors. A separate Polymarket market gives PP+Vox a 92% probability of a joint majority (>176/350 seats). Current polls (Sondaxe) show PP at 29.2% narrowly ahead of PSOE (26.9%); Vox is tracking slightly higher. Feijóo failed to form a government in 2023, but market odds reflect the lesson learned: PP+Vox is now seen as stable enough. No deviation from market anchor warranted.
