French Senate election (27 September 2026): Rassemblement National (RN) forms an independent Senate group for the first time with at least 10 seats (confirmed by Le Monde or AFP by 28 September 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 8. September 2026 · Predicted for 27. September 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle

Probability

55%

In the 2026 Senate election, 178 of 348 seats will be renewed. RN currently lacks the minimum of 10 senators required to form its own parliamentary group. The 2026 municipal elections strengthened RN in several departments whose municipal councillors serve as Senate electors. Le Monde and Connexion France expect significant RN gains. The existing open prediction ('Conservatives retain absolute majority') is consistent with this forecast, as an RN group does not eliminate the conservative majority. No direct prediction market; political polls and municipal election results support approximately 55%.

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.
