Polls closed in Sweden's general election on Sunday where the center-left opposition is hoping to return to power after four years.
According to a post election survey by the Novus polling agency, the centre-left bloc held 51.3% support against 47% for the governing right-wing bloc.
A victory by the right-wing bloc would bring the far-right Sweden Democrats, into government for the first time.
Official election results are expected in the next hours.
Ahead of the election, opinion polls had predicted an easy win for the left-wing alliance over the right-wing group led by incumbent Ulf Kristersson.
