It's suprising that Löfvén is focusing so much on being a bigger group when it's pretty probable that it won't be after today.

They're gonna rebuild a whole bunch in the upcoming years, and add a big new roller coaster. So that'll be fun.

How come val.se is showing far fewer districts counted than svt.se? I thought valmyndigheten would be the absolute source of truth for this data?

They're counting different things. SVT is showing the counting of the preliminary result, that is the "Wednesday votes" (foreign votes, etc) added to the preliminary counting from the election night. Valmyndigheten is showing the progress of the final re-count and that is expected to be done by Friday.

Voter turnout was very good by the way, looking like it's going to end up above 87%, or the highest it's been since 1985.

The latter literally doesn’t matter given how the mandates are distributed.
60 is a lot larger than the 1-2 separating the other blocks.

Also, NMR got 2000 votes. A whole lot of media attention for nothing.
I guess Djurens party is kinda pissed about it with double the votes.

One of the funny things about Swedish elections is that you can write whatever the hell you want on a blank ballot and valmyndigheten has to report it.

Similarly, apparently they're also obliged to tell us if you've consented to be a candidate for a party, regardless of whether you're actually a member of it. One guy did for 59 random small parties (do a ctrl-F for 'Festin') :lol:

I think the current masterplan from Ulf is to keep bluffing until the actual vote against Löfven happens, and to then pray to god that C or SD (L doesn't matter) don't bail at the last second. It's a plan that's virtually unchanged since election-day.

Don't think too hard about what happens next because neither has Ulf.

It wouldn't be M+KD+SD, it would be M+KD putting forward a budget that they know SD as well as C and L would accept over an S budget. That way C will get their cost cuts and lowered taxes while being able to claim to not work with SD and SD, who are now much more economically conservative than they were previously, will get a budget that will be in line with their focus on law and order and strict immigration. C most likely know that joining S won't give them any less restrictive immigration policies anyway, and they have nothing in common regarding taxation and labor policies.

Well, we will probably find out. And also, even if people don't actually buy it they might accept it if they get part of what they want, in the case of C lower taxes and deregulation. For C either choice of partner can cost them voters. A coalition with S would bleed voters to the right and beeing seen as relying on SD will probably bleed voters to the left, primarily MP, most likely.

One thing is sure though, you are going to see pundits on all sides arguing semantics relentlessly for the coming few months.
