Predicted for 25. October 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
The SNS-led coalition list stands at 48.6% of votes according to Faktor Plus polling from September 21, 2026 (up from 47.2% in early September), with the Student List at ~36–40%. Kalshi prices the SNS plurality at ~43% implied probability, reflecting the market's pricing of uncertainty from the anti-corruption opposition movement. We deviate slightly upward (+12pp): SNS has structural advantages in mobilization infrastructure, state media, and historically dominant results. The snap election was strategically called by Vučić to consolidate power ahead of a presidential transition.
Data basis for this prediction
- Faktor Plus Umfrage: SNS-Liste 48,6 % (21.09.2026, balk.hu / Faktor Plus)
- Kalshi: SNS Parlamentspluralität ~43 % implizierte Wahrscheinlichkeit (Stand 29.09.2026)
- Bloomberg: Serbien Snap-Wahl 25. Oktober 2026 angekündigt (09.09.2026)
- Al Jazeera: Serbien — Studentenbewegung als stärkste Opposition (28.09.2026)
Verdict: Miss
Die SNS-Koalitionsliste verlor die Wahl klar. Die Studentenliste gewann mit ~52,7 % der Stimmen und 140 von 250 Sitzen (absolute Mehrheit), SNS kam auf ~38,9 % und 104 Mandate. Vučić räumte die Niederlage noch am Wahlabend (25. Oktober 2026) öffentlich ein. Die Vorhersage unterschätzte die Mobilisierungskraft der seit 2024 anhaltenden Studenten- und Anti-Korruptionsbewegung, die nach dem Bahnhofseinsturz in Novi Sad entstand.

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.
