Elections in Sweden. Provisional results put the left in power

RTP Notícias14 September 2026 at 09:30

The Social Democratic Party won Sunday's parliamentary elections in Sweden. The left-wing parties, which have been in opposition, lead by a slim margin over the right-wing parties, with almost 95 percent of the votes counted. Led by former Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson, the social democrats and three other center-left parties won a slim majority over the right-wing bloc that governs the Swedes.

Why this matters

Readers in the region learn that Sweden may be about to change political direction, with the left returning to power after a right-wing government. This tight result means Magdalena Andersson will have to form a fragile and possibly unstable coalition, which could affect European policies and the Nordic country's international relations. The article follows the vote count and the progressive tallying of Swedish electoral results.
