The gap between the two blocs is now wider than at any time in pollster Synovate’s 29 year history.
The Social Democrats, Left Party and Green Party can boast the combined support of 58.5 percent of voters, compared to 37.9 percent for the centre-right Alliance.
Only the Left Party (+0.8) and the Christian Democrats (-0.8) have made any significant moves since last month’s poll. The result puts the Christian Democrats, with 3.4 percent of the vote, below the 4 percent necessary for a place in parliament.
Synovate asked 2,000 people which party they would vote for if there was a general election today. The survey was carried out from January 10th to 23rd, with the results published in Friday’s Dagens Nyheter.
