Sweden Election: Center-Left Projected to Win, Government Formation Uncertain
Exit polls and initial vote counts project a victory for Sweden's center-left bloc, led by the Social Democrats, over the incumbent conservative coalition.

The far-right Sweden Democrats' potential role in government, if the right-wing bloc were to win, is now less likely based on current projections.
