Quick Glance: Swedish election: Social Democrats leading, right-wing likely to finish second for the first time
  • Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson of Sweden is on course to win the parliamentary elections, but she must still hope for a stable majority in her favor.

  • Regardless of the outcome of the election, Sweden is expected to face a lengthy process of creating a government, as it did four years ago after legislative elections.

  • Andersson, whose party has traditionally been the most powerful in Sweden, was not elected prime minister until November 2021, as the successor to her party colleague Stefan Löfven and the first woman to do so.

  • Andersson predicts that no party will have its own majority following this election.
