Predicted for 13. September 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
Latest polls show Moderaterna (M) between 17.2% and 18.4%: PolitPro Election Trend (Sept 9): 17.6%; Indikator Opinion (Sept 4): 18.4%; Infostat (Sept 1): 17.5%; Demoskop (Aug 24): 17.2%. The 18.0% threshold sits at the upper quartile of this range. M is the third-largest party behind Socialdemokraterna (S, ~27–29%) and Sverigedemokraterna (SD, ~19–20%). Historically, M voters show above-average turnout on election day, which could produce a modest uplift. No Polymarket/Kalshi market for this sub-question. Own estimate: 42%.

Verdict: Hit
Moderaterna erzielte laut Nachwahlbefragungen (SVT/Valu) und ersten Auszählungsergebnissen vom 13. September 2026 ca. 18,1 % der Stimmen – knapp, aber klar über der Schwelle von 18,0 %. Quellen: ZDF/nordisch.info (Prognose 18,1 %), PolitPro-Ergebnisseite (politpro.eu/en/sweden/election/parliament/2026), Euronews (14.09.2026). Die endgültigen amtlichen Ergebnisse werden von der schwedischen Wahlbehörde (val.se) erst ca. eine Woche nach dem Wahltag veröffentlicht; die vorliegenden Zahlen sind vorläufig, zeigen aber konsistent einen Wert leicht über 18,0 %. Die Mobilisierungsstärke der M-Wähler am Wahltag hat – wie in der Begründung antizipiert – tatsächlich einen geringen Uplift gegenüber den Umfragemittelwerten geliefert.

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.
