Iceland’s opposition Social Democrats won snap parliamentary elections as the ruling bloc faced voter discontent with high costs of living and housing shortages.
The Social Democratic Party secured 20.8% backing, or 15 seats in the 63-seat legislature, based on a preliminary vote count published by public broadcaster RUV. Incumbent Prime Minister Bjarni Benediktsson’s conservative Independence Party got 19.4%, or 14 seats.
