Swedes vote in election that could usher far-right into govt
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported9m ago
Citizens of Sweden are heading to the polls on Sunday in a national election that presents a pivotal choice for the country's political future. The vote could result in the populist Sweden Democrats entering government for the first time if the bloc led by incumbent Ulf Kristersson secures a victory.
The election marks a crucial juncture for Sweden, as the outcome will either bring the far-right party into a governing role or steer the nation back toward the liberalism that has traditionally defined its political landscape. Ahead of election day, the left-wing opposition, led by former Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson, experienced a narrowing of its previously held lead.
