SWEDEN
In the latest Novus opinion poll the main opposition centre-right Moderates garnered its lowest level of support in over five years just over a week from the Swedish general election (11 Sep). Ulf Kristersson's party received the backing of 15.6% of respondents, the lowest since an August 2017 poll from Sentio.
- Novus poll: Social Democrats: 29.8% (-0.4), Sweden Democrats: 20.9% (-0.2), Moderates: 15.6% (-0.6), Centre Party: 7.7% (+0.3), Left Party: 7.5% (-1.1), Christian Democrats: 6.4% (+0.5), Greens: 5.6% (+0.8), Liberals: 5.2% (+0.7). +/- vs. 26-28 August 2022. Fieldwork: 27-29 August 2022. Sample size: 1,500
- In the run-up to the election the right-wing nationalist Sweden Democrats are establishing themselves in a fairly consistent second place in opinion polls, behind only PM Magdalena Andersson's centre-left Social Democrats.
- Overall polling puts the right-wing and left-wing blocs of parties almost neck-and-neck, with the election still too close to call. Should the right hold a majority after the election, any formal role for the Sweden Democrats would send a shockwave through the country's political landscape, given historically other parties of the right refused to work with the nationalists.
