The Liberal Party leaped over the 4 percent parliamentary threshold in a poll out on Wednesday, putting this Sunday's national election very much in play. Play around with our election widgets and see if you can make a workable government coalition.

The latest poll, carried out by Novus for TV4 and Göteborgs-Posten, gave the Liberal Party a whopping 5.8 percent, enough to clear the 4 percent threshold by some margin. 

Novus didn't publish numbers on how many seats this would give each party in parliament, so we have used ChatGPT to work out the number, by applying Sweden's modified Sainte-Laguë calculation system (jämkade uddatalsmetoden) to the Novus poll results. We can't vouch for the accuracy of the calculations. 

You can double tap on any party you like to take it into the coalition section, and double tap it again to move it into the government section. If you double tap a party in the government section it goes back to the opposition. 

You can also move mandates between parties to simulate different election results by first tapping on the party you want to lose a mandate, and then tapping on the party you want to give it to.
