C-leader: Unrealistic to support Kristersson as prime minister

It looks increasingly unlikely that the Moderate leader Ulf Kristersson will become prime minister after the election. As the opinion polls now show, that looks very unrealistic, because the Moderates are so small, says Conservative leader Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist in an interview with Ekot on Saturday.

She still stands by the statement that C has two candidates for prime minister. But she admits that she is leaning toward S leader Magdalena Andersson.

As it stands right now, it's most likely, but we won't know until the voters have had their say, she says.

Kristersson also needs to abandon the collaboration with the Sweden Democrats to get C's support, something that doesn't look likely right now.

In an interview with DN on Friday, C-top Anders W. Jonsson recommended that C should completely drop Kristersson as a candidate for prime minister.
