Predicted for 20. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Current polls (Infratest dimap September 2026, ZDF-Politbarometer as of August 2026) show BSW in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern at 4% — clearly below the 5% threshold. Polling aggregators (Wahlrecht.de, Dawum.de) consistently show BSW in MV at 3–4%. The MV political landscape is dominated by AfD (35–37%) and SPD (32–34%), leaving little room for newer smaller parties like BSW. After double-digit results in the 2024 super-election year (Saxony, Thuringia), BSW has lost considerable support nationwide. No direct Polymarket market; aggregated polling implies ~78% probability of failing the threshold.
Data basis for this prediction
- Infratest dimap Ländertrend MV September 2026: BSW 4 %, SPD 32 %, AfD 35 % – infratest-dimap.de
- ZDF-Politbarometer / WiWo.de: AfD 37 %, SPD 34 %, BSW unter 5 % (Stand August/September 2026)
- Dawum.de Polling-Aggregator MV: BSW 3–4 % (Stand September 2026)
- Wahlrecht.de Sonntagsfrage MV: BSW konsistent unter 5 % seit Anfang 2026
Verdict: Hit
Die Vorhersage ist eingetreten. BSW erzielte bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 laut amtlichem Ergebnis 4,83 % der Zweitstimmen (ca. 49.036 Stimmen) und scheiterte damit knapp an der 5-%-Sperrklausel. Das BSW zog nicht in den Schweriner Landtag ein. Quellen: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landtagswahl_in_Mecklenburg-Vorpommern_2026, wahlrecht.de/news/2026/landtagswahl-mecklenburg-vorpommern-2026.html. Das tatsächliche Ergebnis (4,83 %) lag zwar etwas über den in Umfragen prognostizierten 3–4 %, blieb aber – wie vorhergesagt – unterhalb der Hürde.

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.
