"I think people are not surprised but I think 90 percent of the Swedish population detests the Swedish Democrats. So there is still a lot of distaste and a lot of unhappiness with the way the results have gone, and certainly within the political parties. There are none of the mainstream political parties who are anything other then dismayed by the Sweden Democrats getting in."

13. SOUNDBITE (English) James Savage, Managing Editor, "The Local"
"Well it means that for the next four years we are going to be in a situation where no side has an overall majority in parliament and where the government of Frederik Reinfeldt is either going to have to do deals with one of the opposition parties... one of the traditional left wing opposition parties, or with the far right Sweden Democrats. Now he said that he won't do deals with the Far Right Sweden Democrats; he won't even make himself reliant on their support in Parliament. So, somehow he is going to have to get support from the centre-left opposition parties."

STORYLINE
Many residents in the Swedish capital Stockholm were in shock early on Monday, after a far-right party entered the Swedish Parliament for the first time following elections on Sunday.
Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt had been seeking to become the first centre-right leader to win re-election after serving a full term in a Scandinavian welfare nation dominated for decades by the left-wing Social Democrats.
But the anti-immigration Sweden Democrats held the balance of power after winning 5.7 percent of the votes for 20 seats in the 349-seat legislature, according to preliminary results from 99 percent of voting districts.
"Scary!" said one Stockholm resident Charlotta Wennestroem. "I think we are pretty shocked."
Another resident called it "unfortunate."
"We are expecting a lot of chaos in the coming four years now," said Magnus Jacobsen.
Experts said the centre-right governing coalition will negotiate with an opposition party after neither major bloc secured a majority in parliament and both ruled out working with the far-right party that holds the balance of power.
The managing editor of "The Local", James Savage, agreed that Reinfeldt would have to make deals with the opposition parties after his four-party coalition won 172 seats, three short of a majority, while the left-wing opposition got 157 seats.
Reinfeldt was expected to enter talks with the opposition Green Party.
