Politics
The far-right Sweden Democrats party won 5.7% of the vote and 20 seats in the 2010 elections. They ran on a xenophobic, Islamophobic, and anti-immigration platform.[3] In 2022, they became the second-largest party in the country and received 20% of the vote. Former party secretary Björn Söder said he wanted to exclude Jews, Muslims, and indigenous people.[4]
