Sweden's Centre-Left Opposition Leads in General Election Polls

Exit polls indicate Sweden's centre-left parties have an early lead of 51.3 percent in the general election. The Tidö bloc parties follow with 47.0 percent. The results signal a shift in political power ahead of the official count.

Exit polls released on September 13, 2026, show Sweden's centre-left parties leading with 51.3 percent of the vote, according to Al Jazeera. RBC-Russia reported similar figures, noting that 51.3 percent of voters support the 'red-green' left-centrist coalition, while 47.0 percent back the Tidö bloc parties. The results suggest a potential majority for the centre-left bloc, which includes the Social Democrats, the Greens, and the Left Party. Al Jazeera and RBC-Russia both cited the same percentages but framed them differently, with the former focusing on the centre-left parties and the latter emphasizing the coalition's composition.
