The Labour Party had been in government since the 1996 election, first as a majority government after winning a landslide under Fredrik Månsson, and then as part of a minority coalition after facing heavier than expected losses in the 2000 election. With a net loss of 92 seats and winning just 27% of the popular vote, the election marked the worst defeat for the Labour Party since 19XX, a record which would not be surpassed until the 2018 federal election.
