Magdalena Andersson leads the next prime minister market at 87.5% because her center-left bloc secured a narrow 176-173 seat majority in the September 13, 2026, Riksdag election, prompting incumbent Ulf Kristersson to resign on September 17. The Social Democrats emerged as the largest party despite losing seats, while the right-wing Tidö parties and Sweden Democrats fell short. Andersson has initiated coalition talks with the Left, Centre, and Green parties, positioning her for formal nomination once an agreement is reached. Kristersson’s 11.8% reflects lingering uncertainty over negotiation outcomes and potential speaker processes, though the bloc result makes an immediate return unlikely. Minor candidates remain sidelined pending government formation, with the earliest possible swearing-in around September 29.
