In Sweden, opposition has a preliminary one-seat lead

In Sweden, preliminary results of the national elections held on September 13 give the left-wing opposition a one-seat advantage over the right-wing coalition of Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson. According to The Hindu International, on the morning of September 14 the result remained too close to call, as the final ballots had not yet been counted.

Opposition's preliminary lead

The preliminary count showed a very narrow advantage for the opposition led by former Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson. She seeks to return to the post of head of government at the head of a left-wing coalition.

Ulf Kristersson also said that, given the close result, he would consider his options.

Vote counting continues

The final election result may not be known before Wednesday, September 16. Local election boards must count early votes that did not arrive at polling stations by election day. These include, in particular, votes cast abroad.
