Kristdemokraterna och Liberalerna åker ut ur riksdagen och Moderaterna blir största parti med drygt 32 procent av rösterna – så ser det ut när Sveriges skolelever får välja.

I år röstade över 400 000 högstadie- och gymnasieelever i det symboliska Riksdagsskolvalet, arrangerat av MUCF.

I förra skolvalet samlade Tidöpartierna drygt 60 procent av elevernas röster. I årets val fick Moderaterna och Sverigedemokraterna 46 procent och Liberalerna och Kristdemokraterna klarar inte riksdagsspärren.

Miljöpartiet, Vänsterpartiet och Socialdemokraterna går framåt. Sverigedemokraterna tappar och blir tredje största parti efter Socialdemokraterna och Moderaterna.

– Vi ser en tydlig vänstersväng bland de unga. Sverigedemokraterna och Moderaterna är knappt två procentenheter större än oppositionen, om man räknar med att Kristdemokraterna och Liberalerna skulle åka ut ur riksdagen. 2022 var Tidöpartierna däremot 25 procentenheter större, säger Magnus Jägerskog.

Utvecklingen verkar även återspeglas av 18–29-åringarna.

– Tittar man på de nya opinionsmätningarna bland unga väljare syns liknande tendenser, säger Magnus Jägerskog.

I årets val röstade även en större andel av eleverna på ”övrigt”, som ökade från 0,5 procent 2022 till drygt fyra procent i år.

– Det förklaras av att Alternativ för Sverige fick drygt en procent och Örebropartiet två och en halv, säger Magnus Jägerskog.

Open Questions

  • Hur kommer detta skolval att påverka faktiska partisympati bland unga inför kommande val?
  • Vilka faktorer ligger bakom den ökade andelen elever som röstar på 'övrigt'?
