Predicted for 13. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Liberalerna is polling at approximately 2% per PolitPro's August 2026 trend — well below Sweden's 4% threshold. In the 2022 Riksdag election they barely cleared it at 4.7%. The centre-to-left political space is increasingly occupied by Socialdemokraterna (~31%, 97.9% favourite on Polymarket), Moderaterna (~16–18%), and Centerpartiet (~7%), leaving little room for Liberalerna. No direct market price for Liberalerna specifically; the overall picture supports high probability of threshold failure.
Data basis for this prediction
- PolitPro Sverige Wahltrend August 2026: Liberalerna ca. 2% (politpro.eu)
- Polymarket Schweden Riksdag-Wahl: Socialdemokraterna 97,9% stärkste Partei (Stand 31. August 2026)
- Riksdag-Wahl 2022 Ergebnis: Liberalerna 4,7% (Valmyndigheten)
Verdict: Miss
Liberalerna hat die 4%-Sperrklausel bei der Riksdag-Wahl am 13. September 2026 überwunden. Laut mehreren Quellen erhielten sie zwischen 4,5% und 5,4% der Stimmen und zogen mit ca. 16–19 Mandaten in den Reichstag ein. Obwohl sie im Vorfeld in Umfragen (u.a. PolitPro, DN/Ipsos) bei nur ~2,3% lagen und das Scheitern als wahrscheinlich galt, gelang offenbar eine deutliche Mobilisierung von Wechselwählern (v.a. aus dem Moderaterna-Lager) kurz vor der Wahl.

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.
