Social Democratic Party (S&D) leader Magdalena Anderson says she still can't form a government one month after Sweden's general election. Moderate Party (EPP) leader Ulf Kristersson's government now has over 50% in latest poll.
General election results 13 Sep.
🟥 49.6%
🟦 48.8%
With 100% of the votes counted, here are the results of the Swedish general election. Ulf Kristersson (M) has just resigned as Prime Minister. Magdalena Andersson (S) faces a complex path to forming a stable left-wing government.

For reasons that are hard to explain, the Swedish Center Party wants to end this positive trend. What gives?

There are 8 days and 17 hours remaining until Sweden's general election.
The upcoming 2026 Swedish general elections in September are extraordinarily important. The criminal justice policies of the incumbent government have delivered clear & concise results. Sweden cannot go back to the irresponsible policies of former regimes.

The Prime Ministers of the Nordic countries & Canada released a joint statement today after their meeting in Oslo. But it could look a lot nicer. Governments ought first to consult @legalstyleblog before issuing joint statements.

Great article that pinpoints the dissonance over religion between Europe and the US.
"Europe’s most secular major nation is obsessed with the West’s most religious one. The obsession exists not despite the religious difference but because of it."

Interestingly, Swedish voters prefer the government parties' 'law and order' policies (a top concern for them). But in polls, the majority supports the left. 🤨
