Early general elections were held in Sweden 5 and 13 September 1914, the second that year.[1][2] Although the General Electoral League received the most votes,[3] the Swedish Social Democratic Party emerged as the largest party, winning 87 of the 230 seats in the Second Chamber,[4] and have managed to remain so in every subsequent Swedish election.
Results
The General Electoral League and Farmers' League had a tactical arrangement that saw all the votes for the latter land as Electoral League in the constituencies.[2] Therefore, the Electoral League may correctly also be attributed 268,631 votes or 36.7%.[2]
