The polling has began for Sweden’s general election. In the elections an anti-immigration party is vying to make big gains.
The nationalist Sweden Democrats (SD), which polls suggest have 20% support, are tipped for second place.
Neither the governing Social Democrats nor the main centre-right party is likely to win a majority.
Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has accused the SD of extremism and said that a vote for it was “dangerous”.
Immigration has been a central issue of the campaign. The SD doubled its seats in the 2014 election and it is predicted to double them again in this election.
