Up to 7.5 million Swedes are expected at the polling booths to elect the 349 members of the Riksdag, the legislature and the supreme decision-making body of the country.
The members of Riksdag in turn will elect the Prime Minister of Sweden. Under the constitution, regional and municipal elections will also be held on the same day.
The Riksdag is made up of 349 seats, and all are elected through open list proportional representation on multi-member party lists. (ILKHA)
