The final results of the parliamentary elections in Sweden confirmed the victory of the right-wing coalition. It received 176 deputies, and the coalition of the left center with the participation of the social democrats – 173 deputies. Voter turnout was 84 percent, DPA reported.

The right-wing bloc is led by the leader of the Moderate Coalition Party, Ulf Kristerson, but the Sweden Democrats won the most votes in the coalition, which was supported by 20,54 percent of voters and won 73 seats in Parliament.

The largest number of Swedes voted for the ruling Swedish Social Democratic Labor Party - 30,33 percent, which won 107 parliamentary seats. But they are not enough for her to form a cabinet together with the coalition partners.

Prime Minister Magdalena Anderson has already announced her intention to step down due to the election defeat.

The new cabinet will get clearer outlines tomorrow when the first consultations on forming a government begin. Prime Minister Anderson will lead a transitional government until a new one takes over.
