Every vote has now been counted in Sweden, and the left-wing opposition has won over the governing right-wing bloc. The four-party left-wing coalition secured 176 seats. The four-parties in the right-wing coalition secured 173 seats.

Because I cant be arsed to argue with your disinformation, as it's not in good faith to begin with, you get AI slop with real source: “The national debt is lower” — not according to the comparable EU measure. Eurostat puts Sweden’s general government debt at 34.4% of GDP in 2022 and 35.1% in 2025. In nominal terms, it rose from about SEK 2,001bn…

Sweden's center-left opposition has won the country's general election by the thinnest of margins, removing the right-wing incumbents from power. Here's more from @ CNN . https:// flip.it/--IeXT # Politics # Sweden # News

As for us Finns, Social Democrats are leading now, two years to elections, by 6 points. Everyone needs Center Party to be involved in the coalition, no matter who wins. And they are the least trustworthy party, i mean.. you can count on the right wing populist PS to be PS but Kepu, the center party... Example: during the pandemic culture was in…

Sweden's centre-left opposition has defeated the incumbent right-wing governing bloc by the slimmest of margins, public broadcaster SVT said on Wednesday, after 99% of the votes in Sunday's parliamentary election had been counted. FRANCE 24's Paul Rhys reports. # Sweden # election # politics

It’s still a right wing party even though they are socially progressive. The Democrat’s in the states are still a right wing party. There is no critique of capitalism within either the liberal Swedish party or the American Democratic Party (yes, there are members now running for congress that are critiquing parts of it, but they are usually DSA…

🇸🇪 The center-left opposition won the Swedish elections by a very slim margin, the public broadcaster reported after 99% of the votes were counted. Thorny negotiations await the bloc even if the result is confirmed. # Sweden https://www. dw.com/en/swedens-center-left- bloc-set-to-win-election-stv-reports/a-79299076

What's especially interesting here in Sweden is how SD (the far right party) is actually shrinking. Likely a combination of bad decisions while being in the sitting government - but also because they leaned into MAGA slogans during the campaigns. The war in Ukraine also plays into this. There was a direct Russia scandal in the campaign where one…

Swedish public TV declares the opposition has won Sunday’s election. Sweden's centre-left opposition has defeated the incumbent right-wing governing bloc by just one seat, public broadcaster SVT has said, after 99% of the votes in Sunday's parliamentary election had been counted. https:// mediafaro.org/article/20260916…

Guess it adds a bit to say that Center is very right wing in their economic politics. But refuse to work with the extreme right. In addition they also refuse to work with the extreme left. Which leaves us in a hard situation with how the mandates are distributed, no alternatives work. Not the left. Not center. And the right who are in agreement…

Sweden's left wing opposition won a narrow majority in the country's general election after the vote count ended Thursday, but faces laborious negotiations to form a government. https://www. japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/ 17/world/sweden-election-left-wing/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon # worldnews # sweden # ulfkristersson

The difference is that the Danish moderates seem to be in some ways a genuinely centrist party (even if Lars Lykke came from Venstre) Here in Sweden C is probably the most far right party in parliament economically, just that they are also socially liberal. They would much rather form a government with the non nationalist right, rather than the…

Sure V and MP might agree on workers rights and taxation, but a heavily regulated free market and socialism are still quite different - and one is much easier for C to swallow. Plus I would argue that MP is just more flexible with their economic standpoints.
-
If they wanted L to go down they would’ve voted for that. Why would the support votes go away? It clearly worked, and the right know they are completely hopeless without L. If they didn’t want SD in government they would’ve already voted for C.

High taxes arent inherently good either.. ohhh. wait.. they are.. because it means the little guy have less money, people have to work more to make a living, people have less kids, companies dont invest.. Balance is good.. High taxes are not.
-
curios.. given the HUGE cost it have had on the swedish goverments.. ohhh wait.. ALL european goverments.. what focsu is it .. that we are talking about here ?
-
Surely an eventual re-election will almost certainly lead to a right wing victory? It would prove that the left bloc are incapable of forming a government
-
V are communists in disguise and C is a for lower taxes and less bureaucracy for companies/farmers etc…. Not so crazy they don’t like each other
-
I am not so sure. If the left side can’t form a government even though they ”won” I’m not sure they will benefit from a reelection
-
The budget will likely be written by the right as the last time the left was in government since they have 60% of the seats.
-
Well, C can come home to the right again. Just spend 1 term as a support party as penance for cheating with the left.
