Predicted for 31. October 2026
·
Based on: Speculative
Current INSA polls (August 4–11, 2026): AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Left 11%, CDU 10%, Greens 5%. SPD + Left + Greens totals 45% — a slim parliamentary majority if Greens clear the 5% threshold. Alternative: SPD + Left + CDU (~50%) or SPD + CDU + BSW. Since all established parties reject AfD coalitions, SPD as the incumbent governing party in MV since 2002 (Minister-President Schwesig) is the natural coalition leader. Main risk: Greens barely at 5% — if they fall short, mathematical majority disappears. Coalition negotiations within 5–6 weeks realistically by October 31. No Polymarket market for MV coalition.
Data basis for this prediction
- INSA-Umfrage MV 4.–11.8.2026: AfD 36%, SPD 29%, Linke 11%, CDU 10%, Grüne 5% (wahlrecht.de)
- SPD-Ministerpräsidentin Manuela Schwesig: MV-Regierungschefin seit 2017 (Landtag MV)
- CDU-Unvereinbarkeitsbeschluss mit AfD bundesweit (CDU-Bundesvorstand, 2024)
- Präzedenz: Sachsen-Anhalt CDU/SPD-Koalition ohne AfD 2021 und 2026 (offene Vorhersage, Cassandra.news)
Verdict: Partial Hit
Die Kernvorhersage (SPD bildet Koalition ohne AfD) trat ein: Nach der Wahl am 20.09.2026 (AfD 38,2%, SPD 35,5%, Linke 6,5%, Grüne 5,7%, CDU scheiterte mit 4,9%) nahm die SPD unter Schwesig wie vorhergesagt Koalitionsverhandlungen mit Linke und Grünen auf – exakt das in der Prognose als Hauptszenario beschriebene Rot-Rot-Grün-Bündnis. Die Koalitionsverhandlungen begannen am 12. Oktober 2026. Nicht erfüllt wurde jedoch die Fristbedingung: Laut Nordkurier/Handelsblatt wollten die drei Parteien ihren Koalitionsvertrag erst am 2. November 2026 vorlegen (Ziel: 'erste Novemberhälfte') – also nach dem Stichtag 31. Oktober 2026. Die Unterzeichnung fand somit nicht bis 31.10. statt.

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.
