The politics of Sweden take place in a framework of a parliamentary representative democratic constitutional monarchy. Executive power is exercised by the government,led by the Prime Minister. Legislative power is vested in both the government and parliament,elected within a multi-party system. The judiciary is independent,appointed by the government and employed until retirement. Sweden is formally a monarchy with a monarch holding symbolic power.
The Riksdag is the parliament and the supreme decision-making body of the Kingdom of Sweden. Since 1971,the Riksdag has been a unicameral parliament with 349 members,elected proportionally and serving,since 1994,fixed four-year terms. The 2022 Swedish general election is the most recent general election.

Elections to the 20 county councils and 290 municipal assemblies –all using almost the same electoral system –are held concurrently with the legislative elections on the second Sunday in September.
