> Sweden’s center-left opposition bloc was narrowly ahead in the parliamentary election after 99% of votes were counted, public broadcaster SVT reported. It led by 26,169 votes and was projected to win 175 seats against 174 for Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson’s right-wing bloc. If confirmed, Magdalena Andersson’s bloc faces difficult coalition talks, including divisions between the Center Party and Left Party.
