General elections were held in Sweden on 11 September 2022 to elect the 349 members of the Riksdag who in turn elected the Prime Minister of Sweden. Under the constitution,regional and municipal elections were also held on the same day. The preliminary results presented on 15 September showed the government parties lost their majority,which were confirmed by the final results published on 17 September. After a month of negotiations following the elections that led to the TidöAgreement among the right-wing bloc,Moderate Party (M) leader Ulf Kristersson was elected Prime Minister on 17 October. The Kristersson Cabinet is a minority government that relies on confidence and supply from the Sweden Democrats (SD).
In the 2018 Swedish general election,no political group or party won an outright majority,resulting in a hung parliament. On 9 September,the Red-Greens,led by Stefan Löfven's Social Democrats (S),emerged as the main political force in the Riksdag,while the centre-right Alliance led by Ulf Kristersson's Moderate Party only got one seat less. The right-wing populist party Sweden Democrats,led by Jimmie Åkesson,came third. As a result,protracted negotiations were required before a new government formation. On 18 January 2019,Löfven was re-elected as prime minister.
