Russian State Duma Election (September 20, 2026): United Russia (Единая Россия) secures more than 47.0% of votes cast (confirmed by Central Election Commission Russia or Reuters by September 21, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 16. September 2026 · Predicted for 20. September 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern
Probability
83%

In the 2021 Duma election, United Russia received 49.8% (Central Election Commission). State pollsters WCIOM and FOM currently measure 48.5–51.6% support for 2026. Multiple structural factors apply vs. 2021: full state media control, absence of independent observers, war-mobilization narrative, three-day voting (Sept 18–20). No Polymarket price available; the separate open predictions for LDPR (>7%) and KPRF (>10%) are not contradicted by this finding. Calibrated at 83% based on current polling (lower bound 48.5%) and historical Duma results.

Data basis for this prediction
  • PolitPro.eu: Einiges Russland 48,5–51,6% (WCIOM/FOM, Stand Sept. 2026)
  • Wikipedia / Meduza.io: Duma-Wahl 2021 — Einiges Russland 49,8% (Zentralwahlkommission Sept. 2021)
  • Interfax.com / Meduza.io: Duma-Wahl auf 18.–20. September 2026 festgesetzt (Abruf 16.09.2026)
  • Wikipedia: 2026 Russian legislative election — Wahlsystem, 5%-Hürde, aktuelle Sitzverteilung (Stand 16.09.2026)
Verdict: Hit
Einiges Russland erzielte laut Zentralwahlkommission (ЦИК) nach Auszählung von ~97% der Protokolle 57,83% der Parteilistenstimmen – weit über der Schwelle von 47,0%. Die Stimmauszählung war bis zum 21. September 2026 weit fortgeschritten (Endergebnis für 25. September angekündigt). Quellen: Reuters/Al Jazeera (21.09.2026), Meduza-ЦИК-Daten, Wikipedia-Artikel zur Wahl 2026. Die Vorhersage trat deutlich ein; der tatsächliche Wert übertraf sogar das Ergebnis von 2021 (49,82%) erheblich.

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.
