Early general elections were held in Sweden between 27 March and 7 April 1914,[1][2] after the Riksdag had been prematurely dissolved by the Cabinet of Hjalmar Hammarskjöld.[3] The General Electoral League emerged as the largest party, winning 86 of the 230 seats in the Andra kammaren.[4] As of 2022, this is the last time a Swedish election has not seen the Social Democrats win a plurality of seats.
