Predicted for 6. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
All current polls show the AfD clearly in first place with 41–43%, roughly 19 percentage points ahead of the CDU (22–23%). PolitPro aggregate (Sept. 5): AfD 41.7%, CDU 22.5%; INSA (Sept. 1): 43%/22%; Forschungsgruppe Wahlen (Sept. 3): 41%/23%. The AfD would thereby become the strongest faction in a German state parliament for the first time. No government participation is planned (firewall of all other parties), but as the largest party it earns the right to initiate coalition soundings. No prediction market price available; own calibration based on consolidated polls: 95%.

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%.

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.

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.
