People in Sweden voted for a new parliament. The result is very close. Almost all votes are counted now. An alliance of several parties is ahead. It is the center-left alliance. The Social Democrats belong to this alliance.
The leader of the Social Democrats is Magdalena Andersson. Her alliance won 175 seats in the parliament. The parliament in Sweden has 349 seats in total. Her alliance has a very small lead. It is only 3 seats more than the other group.
The other group is the right-wing government alliance. The Sweden Democrats party is part of it. This party is far-right. It lost votes in this election. This is the first time in 16 years. The right-wing alliance ruled in Sweden before.
Ulf Kristersson is the current prime minister. He belongs to the right-wing alliance. His alliance gets only 174 seats. He misses a few votes for a win. Experts say a change of government is very sure.
The election authority still counts the last postal votes. Votes from abroad are also missing. The final result probably comes on Thursday. Magdalena Andersson must then try to form a government. This can take a few months.
