At Tuesday's vote, only 45 of the parliament's 349 members supported the motion. Of the remainder of lawmakers, 133 voted to reject the proposal, 155 abstained and 16 were absent. The Sweden Democrats have 49 seats. Votes of non-confidence are very unusual in Swedish politics. Tuesday's was only the sixth ever and none have succeeded.
