The C leader faces a big loss when the Riksdag votes for prime minister

On Tuesday at 1 p.m., the Riksdag will test whether Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist will become Sweden's next prime minister.

The special thing this time is that no one believes or even wants the prime ministerial candidate to emerge victorious from the vote. Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist has recently completed her probing mission for a so-called centrist government, but she did so with the intention that one would be led by S-leader Magdalena Andersson.

- It seems unreasonable that a party that is no bigger than the Center Party should be a candidate for prime minister, Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist told DN in connection with her receiving the probe assignment.

According to Speaker Andreas Norlén, it is still the C leader who should be tested in a prime ministerial vote.

- She has agreed to be a candidate even though she has not probed with the ambition to become prime minister, said chairman Andreas Norlén in connection with announcing his decision to try the C leader as prime minister.

How many people will vote for Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist remains to be seen, but there is much evidence that it will only be her 25 party colleagues who press the green button. In order for her to be elected, it is required that she does not get a majority against her in the chamber.

The vote will be the second in a row after Magdalena Andersson was previously voted down by members of parliament. Thus, two attempts remain before extra elections are automatically announced.

When Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist is executed on Tuesday, the probe mission will, according to the plan laid out by Andreas Norlén, go on to M leader Ulf Kristersson. He will have a week to investigate whether he can find a government document that will be accepted by the Riksdag chamber.

The speaker has previously said that he wants the ongoing government process to go faster than it did in 2018. Then it took 134 days before the Social Democrats and the Green Party could take office through the January agreement with the Center Party and the Liberals. It has now been 51 days since election day.

- My ambition is that we should not hold on for 134 days again, Andreas Norlén has said before.
