Predicted for 27. October 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Yesh Atid won approximately 14.1% of votes (24 of 120 seats) in the November 2022 Knesset election. As the centrist-liberal opposition party, Yesh Atid under Lapid remains the strongest counterpart to the Netanyahu coalition. The open Cassandra forecast implies Netanyahu's right-wing bloc falls below 61 seats — requiring a strengthened, unified opposition from which Yesh Atid disproportionately benefits. No direct Polymarket/Kalshi market for Yesh Atid vote share. Estimate based on the 2022 comparison result and structural opposition dynamics.
Data basis for this prediction
- Zentrales Wahlkomitee Israel: Knesset-Wahl November 2022 – Yesh Atid 24 Sitze, ca. 14,1 % der abgegebenen Stimmen
- Offene Cassandra-Vorhersage: Netanyahu-Rechtsblock (Likud, Shas, UTJ, nationalreligiöse Parteien) erzielt weniger als 61 von 120 Knesset-Sitzen (27. Oktober 2026)
- Reuters / Haaretz: Israelische Knesset-Neuwahl festgelegt für 27. Oktober 2026
Verdict: Miss
Yesh Atid trat bei der Knesset-Wahl vom 27. Oktober 2026 nicht eigenständig an: Die Partei fusionierte im April 2026 mit Bennett 2026 zum gemeinsamen Bündnis 'Together' (hebr. יחד), geführt von Naftali Bennett – nicht mehr von Lapid allein. Das Bündnis erzielte laut Auszählung nur 9,02 % der gültigen Stimmen (ca. 460.478 Stimmen, 12 Sitze), deutlich unter der Schwelle von 13,0 %. Der separat messbare Yesh-Atid-Stimmenanteil existiert nicht, da es keine eigenständige Kandidatur gab.

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.
