These small parties are not up for a parliamentary position though. They are only active in their municipality. There are 8 parties in the Swedish parliament (though it looks like it's going to be 7 after the election in fall).

You're forgetting the 12% exception, but they'd probably need an even larger amount than that.

I'm not following the polls at all. Who is falling out, the liberals?

[–] Cavemanfreak@programming.dev 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Hah, yeah. They are at ~2% or so (with 4% being the minimum needed to get seats)

Damn. I can't recall when they didn't make the bar last.

I mean it is funny - the incest bit I mean - but it kind of epitomises why I don't really follow politics anymore. Our leaders aren't serious, and for the past few decades it's devolved into a spectacle. It stresses me the fuck out.

The past week I've lived with my windows wide open, so I need to take particular care that I don't just... tip out of them. Our idiot politics don't help in that regard.
