Predicted for 6. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
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

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%.

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.

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.
