Peter Kullgren and Lars Adaktusson look set to miss Riksdag seats as vote counts continue

Current Minister for Rural Affairs Peter Kullgren (KD) does not look likely to enter the Riksdag, nor does former program host Lars Adaktusson (KD). MP Martin Melin (L) looks likely to leave.

According to surveys by forecasting company Vera Policy, prominent Christian Democrats look set to end up outside the Riksdag.

To be elected, at least 5 percent of the party's personal votes in the constituency where you are listed are required - and neither Peter Kullgren nor Lars Adaktusson seem likely to succeed.

Even MP Martin Melin is having a hard time.

"It took 27 votes for me to be allowed to represent the Liberals in Sörmland in the Riksdag," he writes on Instagram.

Things are going better for Birgitta Ohlsson (C), Anfal Mahdi (V), Ida Ekeroth Clausson (S), Sten Ingvar Bergheden (M), Julia Algotsson (C), Meit Fohlin (S), Caroline Täljeblad (V), Mohamed Abdukardir Ali (V) and Mohamed Mohamed (MP), who look set to make it in with the most votes counted.
