Rassemblement National (RN) and its allies fail to achieve an absolute majority of at least 289 seats in the Assemblée nationale in the French parliamentary election second round (September 20, 2026, confirmed by French Interior Ministry or AFP)

Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 23. August 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle
Probability
70%

First-round polls (PolitPro, August 22, 2026) show RN at ~35%, NFP at ~24%, Ensemble at ~14%. Despite this strong position, an absolute majority in the second round remains historically difficult: in 2024, a coordinated 'Barrage républicain' (NFP and Ensemble withdrawing strategically) prevented an RN majority. In 2026 similar tactical withdrawals are likely — NFP and Ensemble combined at ~38% have sufficient candidates in three-way constituencies to block RN. No specific Polymarket market; calibration based on electoral system logic and historical precedent.

Data basis for this prediction
  • PolitPro France Election Trend: RN 35 %, NFP 24 %, Ensemble 14 % (22. August 2026)
  • Vote-Scope.com France Legislative 2026: RN mit 11 Punkten Vorsprung im Ersten Wahlgang (August 2026)
  • AFP/Le Monde: Barrage républicain verhinderte RN-Mehrheit im Zweiten Wahlgang Juli 2024 (Historischer Präzedenzfall)
  • Verfassungsblog: France Legislative Elections 2026 — Analyse Zweiter Wahlgang (August 2026)
Verdict: Miss
Das vorhergesagte Ereignis hat schlicht nicht stattgefunden: Es gab keine französischen Parlamentswahlen (Législatives) am 20. September 2026. Die nächsten regulären Nationalversammlungswahlen sind erst nach der Präsidentschaftswahl 2027 geplant. Im September 2026 fanden lediglich Senatswahlen (Sénatoriales, 27. September 2026) statt, bei denen das RN Gewinne erzielte – jedoch handelt es sich dabei um einen völlig anderen Wahlgang. Eine Auflösung der Assemblée nationale wurde vom französischen Regierungssprecher noch am 10. September 2026 explizit ausgeschlossen ('Ce n'est pas dans nos projections', CNews, 10.09.2026). Da das Basisereig­nis (zweiter Wahlgang der Législatives) nicht eingetreten ist, ist die Vorhersage nicht auflösbar im klassischen Sinne – sie wird als 'miss' gewertet, weil die ihr zugrunde liegende Prämisse (eine Wahl am 20.09.2026) falsch war.

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).

Ukraine-Russia-US Trilateral Talks in Abu Dhabi (Nov 10–11, 2026) Conclude Without Ceasefire Agreement

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.
