"For now, we are in the lead. And if that is confirmed, Sweden will have a new government," said Andersson, who served as Sweden's first woman prime minister in 2021-2022. Kristersson called the question of who would govern "open."

Counting resumes Wednesday to include late early votes and ballots cast abroad. All votes are then automatically recounted by regional county administrative boards, a process that usually takes about a week, officials said.

The Sweden Democrats took about 17.6% of counted votes, down from 20.5% in 2022, their first decline since entering parliament in 2010. The Social Democrats led on about 28%, on track for their weakest result in over a century.

Kristersson had governed for four years with Sweden Democrats support in exchange for policy influence and pledged them cabinet posts if his bloc won. Health care, crime, immigration and the economy dominated the campaign.
