However, the Swedish Election Commission stated that mailing votes and overseas Swedish citizen votes have not yet arrived at the voting station, which will be counted on this part of the votes on the 14th.

The amazing performance of the Swedish Democratic Party is regarded as a "earthquake" in the country's political circles. The British Guardian said that this seems to mean a major change in Sweden's "liberal tradition".

It is reported that the Swedish Democratic Party was a political party formed in the new Swedish Nazi event in the mid -1990s, known as white supremacy and anti -immigrant thoughts. The background of extremeism has made the party widely criticized and has been excluded for a long time in the Swedish political circles.

But in 2018, the gentle party that lost the election began to contact the Swedish Democratic Party, and the latter's cross -party connection with the gentle party leader Ulf Kristerson gradually deepened, and the Swedish Democratic Party became the mainstream right -wing of Sweden.
