Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 25. August 2026 · Predicted for 31. December 2026 · Based on: Speculative

Probability

40%

Nicolás Maduro was removed by the US on 3 January 2026; Delcy Rodríguez assumed the acting presidency on 5 January and signalled willingness to cooperate with Washington. US-backed talks between the PSUV National Assembly and opposition representative Dinorah Figuera started 6 August 2026. Secretary Rubio projected results 'in weeks and months, not years'. Per the CRS Report (13 August 2026), however, 382 political prisoners remain; the institutional structures supporting Maduro are largely intact. Polymarket prices Lula at 63% for the 2026 Brazilian election – regional left-social-democratic competition shapes the context. Model: 40% probability for a formal election roadmap by year-end.

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.
