Government formation – this happened | Gothenburg after

Sweden goes to the elections and the preliminary result indicates the dead race between the blocks. Although S and MP are favorable, the Red-Green parties have 144 warrants against the Alliance's 143rd mandate, while the Swedish Democrats have reinforced their role as master of the airwaves. Moderate leader Ulf Kristersson calls from Prime Minister Stefan Löfven (S). Löfven wants to wait for the final result of the elections.

After a week, the final result of the parliamentary elections has been established – and the distribution of mandates is identical to that of the preliminary result. Both blocks continue to claim that they are the biggest. "Unless Stefan Löfven and the government take it for granted, we will vote for their resignation during the re-evaluation of the Riksdag," Ulf Kristersson said. "The final results of the elections show that the Social Democrats have become the largest party and supported by the largest government base," said Stefan Löfven.

When convening the Riksdag, a parliamentary majority consisting of the Alliance and the Swedish Democrats votes against Löfven as prime minister. The votes are 142 for Löfven and 204 against. Three members are absent. As a result, Stefan Löfven submits his resignation request to the president asking him to remain as the head of a shipping government.

After a new round of talks, President Andreas Norlén, moderate leader Ulf Kristersson, is tasked with studying the possibility of forming a new government. On October 14, Kristersson will abandon his attempt. None of the solutions proposed by the government has managed to secure enough support for the Riksdag.

The President instructs Stefan Löfven to explore and see if he can propose a government that can be "tolerated" by the Riksdag. Löfven says that he will invite all party leaders, with the exception of SD's Jimmie Åkesson, to individual and "confidential" conversations. Two weeks later, he must also throw in the towel.

The speaker sits down with most party leaders in different discussion groups. "The leftist party and the Swedish Democrats are not invited because no one has declared wanting to be part of a government with them," Andreas Norlén says. A few days later, the president announced that he would propose Ulf Kristersson to the post of prime minister and that he would be judged by the Riksdag.

With the figures 154 yes and 195 no, the Riksdag voted no for Ulf Kristersson as prime minister. The center and the Liberals, as well as the reddish green, left his candidacy. "It's a unique event that the Alliance parties are voting against a bourgeois prime minister," Kristersson said, disappointed.

The president entrusts Annie Lööf, head of the center, with the task of exploring the possibilities of a new government. "I'm going to try to find ways to form a new government, if it ends up getting the president to become prime minister:" We have to come back to this issue, "she says, and Lööf does not succeed in innovating.

President Andreas Norlén announced that he wanted to let the Riksdag vote for Stefan Löfven as Prime Minister. On 3 December, party leader S will announce which parties will be included in his proposed government so that the Riksdag can vote on 5 December.
