Swedish voters head to the polls Sunday for legislative elections that are shaping up to be particularly tight, according to France 24. The left-wing opposition is described as running neck and neck with the right-wing bloc currently in power.
According to the source, the incumbent prime minister has promised to bring the far-right into government if his camp wins, a prospect that is fueling discussion around this election.
The outcome of the vote remains uncertain, with Sweden's two main political blocs presented as running virtually even in the race for these elections.
