| The General elections were held in Sweden on September 14 to elect the Swedish Parliament, all 21 county councils and 290 municipal assemblies. The result provided the Social Democrats 43.7 percent of the vote while the ruling centre-right coalition, led by the Moderate Party, took 39.3 percent and the far-right Swedish Democrats taking 13%. The leader of Sweden’s Social Democrats,Mr Stefan Lofven said he would try to form a government after their election win, but will not work with the far-right. He also said that the country needed a ‘new direction’ after eight years of center-right rule. The Social Democrats have dominated Swedish politics for most the 20th century and its single-party government ruled the country from 1994 to 2006 with support from allies. The Swedish election system is based on universal suffrage. Elections are to be free, secret and direct. The election system used is proportional representation; consequently the share of seats any party receives in the Swedish Parliament generally reflects the share of all the votes received by that party./. |
