Sweden's election tightens with 11 days to go, TV4 poll shows

A Novus poll for TV4 shows the Liberal Party at 3.3% and the Social Democrats at their lowest level since 2021.

  • On Wednesday, a new Novus poll showed Sweden's ruling coalition has nearly caught up with the centre-left opposition bloc ahead of the Sept 13 election for parliament, pointing to a close vote.
  • Falling from previous highs, the opposition's lead has narrowed to 2.6 percentage points, the smallest gap this year, as the Social Democrats face a polling decline and the Liberal Party gains support.
  • Within the pro-government Tid coalition, the centre-left parties hold 50.3% backing while the Sweden Democrats polled 20.7%, and the Liberals reached 3.3%.
  • Liberal leader Simona Mohamsson told journalists, "This bodes well for election day," while Social Democrats party secretary Tobias Baudin said the party expected the lead to shrink.
  • With the election approaching, the centre-left remains divided, with the Centre Party and the Left Party ruling out cooperation if the other participates in a government.
