Predicted for 5. October 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
In Quebec's provincial election on October 5, 2026, the Parti Québécois (PQ) under Paul St-Pierre Plamondon leads the latest Léger poll (September 27, 2026) with 30% (PLQ 26%, PCQ 18%, CAQ 16%, QS 9%). The Writ (September 28) projects the PQ at ~68 seats — four above the 64-seat majority threshold. A PQ majority is supported by a commanding francophone lead (PQ 37%) and the collapse of the CAQ (16% from its 2022 majority of 41%). Risk: 47% of decided voters said their vote could still change — high volatility remains. A PQ majority and the separately open-predicted CAQ <10-seat result are fully compatible and mutually reinforcing. No direct Polymarket market for PQ majority found.

- 47 % der entschiedenen Wähler: Stimme könnte noch wechseln (Léger360, 27. September 2026)
Verdict: Miss
Die Parti Québécois gewann die Wahl am 5. Oktober 2026, erzielte jedoch nur 59 Sitze – fünf Mandate unter der Mehrheitsschwelle von 64. PQ bildet eine Minderheitsregierung (28,0 % Stimmenanteil). Die weiteren Ergebnisse: PLQ 40 Sitze, PCQ 19, QS 9, CAQ 0. Die Vorhersage einer absoluten PQ-Mehrheit ist damit klar verfehlt. Hauptgrund: Trotz PQ-Sieg reichten der Stimmenanteil (28 % statt prognostizierter Umfragewerte von ~30 %) und die Sitzverteilung nicht für eine Mehrheit; die Liberalen schnitten stärker ab als erwartet und sammelten 40 Sitze.

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.
