State election Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (September 20, 2026): Voter turnout exceeds 65.0% (confirmed by State Returning Officer MV or tagesschau.de by September 21, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 7. September 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
78%

At the 2021 MV state election, voter turnout was 70.8% – the highest since 1998, well above 65%. The 2026 election is highly polarized: the AfD is polling as the strongest party at ~28% according to WahlForecast.de and Dawum.de, with the SPD at ~22%. Such a contest historically generates high mobilization both by AfD supporters and in counter-mobilization. Historically, turnout at state elections with clear anti-AfD mobilization dynamics (e.g., Saxony 2024: 74.4%) has been well above 65%. No prediction market found for turnout; probability based on historical data: 78%.

Data basis for this prediction
  • Statista: Wahlbeteiligung Landtagswahl MV 2021 – 70,8 % (Stand 7.9.2026)
  • WahlForecast.de: Landtagswahl MV 2026 – AfD ~28 %, SPD ~22 % (Stand 7.9.2026)
  • Dawum.de: MV Wahlumfragen 2026 – Aktuelle Sonntagsfragen (Stand 7.9.2026)
Verdict: Hit
Die Wahlbeteiligung bei der Landtagswahl Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20. September 2026 lag bei 78,1 % – deutlich über der vorhergesagten Schwelle von 65 %. Die Vorhersage trat damit klar ein. Die hohe Mobilisierung wurde durch das starke Abschneiden der AfD (38,2 %) und die intensive Gegenmobilisierung erklärt, was den historischen Trend bestätigte.

Donald Trump publicly questions the legitimacy of the 2026 midterm results and signals legal challenges by November 15, 2026

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).

Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP) secures parliamentary majority with Vox coalition and becomes Spanish Prime Minister — General Election 29 November 2026 (confirmed by Junta Electoral Central or AP by 1 December 2026)

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.
