Election seat count narrows to 176 opposition seats versus 173 for the Tidö bloc
The latest vote tally shows the opposition holding 176 seats and the Tidö parties 173, with virtually no chance of a shift.
According to the most recent projection, the parliamentary balance stands at 176 seats for the opposition and 173 for the Tidö parties. Four districts remain to report, and the likelihood of a seat moving back to the Tidö side is now below one per thousand. Earlier on Wednesday, seats fluctuated mainly between the Sweden Democrats and the Social Democrats, tightening the overall split.
Why it matters
