French parliamentary election (first round, 13 September 2026): Rassemblement National (RN) wins more than 33.0% of votes cast (confirmed by French Interior Ministry or AFP)

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 22. August 2026 · Predicted for 13. September 2026 · Based on: Speculative
Probability
52%

In the snap parliamentary election of July 2024, the RN achieved ~33.2% in the first round — a historic high. Since then, immigration and purchasing power have consolidated as dominant issues; current polls show RN consistently at 32–36% voting intentions. The existing open prediction (Bardella will not become PM by October 2026) implies RN remains the largest force without forming a government — consistent with a first-round result >33% without an absolute majority. No Polymarket/Metaculus price found; estimate based on 2024 precedent and August 2026 poll consensus.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Frankreich Parlamentswahl Juli 2024: RN Erststimmen ~33,2 % (Ministère de l'Intérieur, Jul 2024)
  • Umfragen-Aggregator Frankreich Aug 2026: RN Wahlabsichten 33–35 % (IFOP/Politico Poll of Polls)
  • Open Prediction: Bardella (RN) wird nicht PM bis 31. Okt 2026 (Cassandra) — kein Widerspruch
  • Le Monde Wahlumfragen-Übersicht: RN stärkste Einzelpartei (Aug 2026)

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%.

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.

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.
