Predicted for 20. September 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
The most recent INSA poll (August 13, 2026, n=1,000) shows the Greens in MV at exactly 5% — up 1pp from the previous poll, but still right on the threshold. With a margin of error of ±2–3pp, failure is well within reach. The Greens are structurally weak in eastern Germany (2021 MV result: 4.7%; 2016: 4.8% — both narrowly failed). In the current Cassandra system, FDP and BSW in MV are already forecast to fail; the Greens are the fourth party near the 5% line.

Verdict: Miss
Die Grünen übersprangen bei der Landtagswahl in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 die 5-%-Sperrklausel mit ca. 5,7 % der Stimmen und zogen mit 5 Mandaten in den Schweriner Landtag ein. Die Vorhersage ihres Scheiterns ist damit nicht eingetreten. Ironie des Ergebnisses: Ausgerechnet die Parteien, die laut Vorhersage als gesetzt galten oder bei denen Scheitern als wahrscheinlicher galt, verfehlten die Hürde – CDU (4,9 %), FDP (1,0 %) und BSW (4,8 %) schieden alle aus. Die Grünen profitierten wohl von einer leichten Mobilisierung bzw. taktischem Wählerverhalten und lagen am Ende klar über der Schwelle. Quellen: Landtag MV (vorl. amtl.

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).

Ukrainian, US, and Russian negotiators convene November 10–11 in Abu Dhabi. Russia conducted large-scale long-range strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure and logistics hubs on November 3–4; Ukraine responded with drone strikes on the Ryazan refinery. Positions on territory and security guarantees remain far apart. No Polymarket or Kalshi market covers this specific event; historical base rate for failure of comparable trilateral talks: >80%.

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.
