During May, The Moderate Party loses 3.7 percentage points and lands at 17.4 percent. Meanwhile, support for the Center Party grows by 1.7 percentage points to 5.8 percent.
Thus, the Center Party rises after the election of a new party leader, and the change for both parties is statistically confirmed.
Besides the Center Party electing Anna-Karin Hatt as party leader, the twists around the national security adviser affected The Moderate Party's decline.
They were quite high last month with a media agenda focusing heavily on the economy and international issues, now the focus has instead shifted to the security problems that have come with the national security adviser, says Indicator's opinion chief Per Oleskog Tryggvason to Ekot.
