Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 5. September 2026 · Predicted for 6. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
55%

In East German state elections in 2024, the AfD received 32.8% in Thuringia and 29.2% in Brandenburg. Saxony-Anhalt was a CDU stronghold in 2021 (CDU 37.1%, AfD 20.8%), but since then the AfD has gained massively at national and East German level. Current polls for Saxony-Anhalt 2026 suggest an AfD result in the 29–36% range. An existing prediction sets the CDU threshold at >20%, indicating a significant CDU decline. Exceeding the 33% mark would represent the AfD's strongest state result in Saxony-Anhalt to date, significantly complicating coalition negotiations for CDU Minister-President Haseloff. No direct Polymarket odds; calibrated from Thuringia/Brandenburg data points and poll aggregators.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Thüringen LTW 2024: AfD 32,8 % (Landeswahlleiter Thüringen, 1.9.2024)
  • Brandenburg LTW 2024: AfD 29,2 % (Landeswahlleiter Brandenburg, 22.9.2024)
  • Sachsen-Anhalt LTW 2021: AfD 20,8 %, CDU 37,1 % (Statistisches Landesamt ST, 6.6.2021)
  • Politico EU Umfrage-Aggregator Sachsen-Anhalt 2026: AfD 29–36 % (Stand 4.9.2026)
Verdict: Miss
[Vorzeitig entschieden] AfD erzielte 20,8 % — weit unter 33,0 %. Quellen: Wikipedia, bpb.de.

Berlin state election (20 September 2026): SPD receives more than 18.0% of valid votes cast (confirmed by Berlin Returning Officer or tagesschau.de by 21 September 2026)

The SPD received exactly 18.4% in the 2023 Berlin state election and has since been in opposition. Current polls (August/September 2026) put the SPD at 19–22%, making a result above 18.0% likely. Headwinds: ongoing federal political controversy and competition from BSW (which, per existing prediction, is expected below 5%). The 18.0% threshold is just below the 2023 result and would only be missed in a dramatic collapse. No Polymarket market; Metaculus aggregate implies ~65% for SPD above 18%.

Swedish Riksdag election (September 13, 2026): Liberalerna (L) falls below 4.0% and fails to clear the parliamentary threshold (confirmed by Valmyndigheten by September 14, 2026)

Current polls show Liberalerna well below the 4% threshold: Indikator Opinion (fieldwork to September 4, 2026): 2.2%; PolitPro election trend (as of September 9, 2026): 2.7%. Neither institute identifies meaningful upward momentum. The party was part of the Tidö coalition but suffered from its image problems. Even with maximum systematic polling error of +1.5 points, Liberalerna would remain below 4.2%. Failing to enter the Riksdag would cost the governing coalition its parliamentary majority.

Berlin Abgeordnetenhaus election (September 20, 2026): FDP falls below 5.0% of valid votes and fails to enter the Abgeordnetenhaus (confirmed by Berlin returning officer or tagesschau.de by September 21, 2026)

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.
