AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

Sverigedemokraterna hade över 20 procent i riksdagsvalet 2022 och var då andra största parti efter Socialdemokraterna. Inför detta val fanns förväntningar på att behålla eller öka stödet.

SD-humlor hängde från taket, inbjudna gäster tog selfies med partitopparna och Kikki Danielssons ”Bra vibrationer” spelades innan deltagarna på SD:s valvaka i Solna samlades kring storbildsskärmarna för att se när SVT:s valundersökning presenterades.

Då sjönk stämningen rejält på valvakan. Enligt SVT backar partiet till 17,2 procent – jämfört med ett valresultat på över 20 procent 2022. Dessutom blir man av med positionen som andra största parti – och hamnar under Moderaterna.

– What the fuck, det kan inte stämma, ropades det hos SD:s valvaka när skärmen visade att Moderaterna var andra största parti.

Partitopparna stod framför scenen utrustade med stora humlor att vifta med – men de blev tysta och påtagligt allvarliga. SD-toppen Linda Lindberg säger att hon var samlad när hon såg att SD enligt SVT backat till 17.2 procent.

– Det är ju inte kul för något parti som förlorar inflytande. Om det här står sig är det dåligt för Sverige, säger hon.

Hon säger att det gäller att ha is i magen.

– Så jag får ju fundera lite kring det här nu och så får vi se hur det utvecklar sig under kvällen här, säger hon.

SD-veteranen Richard Jomshof står och äter en cheesecake när DN fångar honom i det nu något dämpade vimlet.

– Otroligt deppigt. Det är väl så man kan sammanfatta det, säger han.

Han säger att man förstått att det fanns en risk att partiet skulle backa för första gången i ett riksdagsval.

– Samarbete innebär kompromisser och det kommer alltid att finnas en del kärnväljare som inte uppskattar att man kan få backa i centrala frågor. Så att risken fanns visste vi, men kanske inte såhär mycket.

Han hoppas att valundersökningen är ”dåligt utförd” och visar sig inte stämma.

– Jag vill inte tro att det är sant, säger Richard Jomshof.

Statistik från SVT visar att SD har tappat sex procent av väljarna till Moderaterna och fyra procent till Kristdemokraterna.
