Sweden's Christian Democrats (Kristdemokraterna) have filed a complaint against public broadcaster Sveriges Radio with the Swedish Press and Broadcasting Authority (Granskningsnemnda), according to Aftonbladet.
The party claims the broadcaster presented incorrect figures during an interview with party leader Ebba Busch. The figures concerned healthcare waiting queues.
The party argues the broadcaster violated requirements for objectivity and accuracy. "This could directly influence the election," the complaint states.
Sweden holds parliamentary, municipal, and regional elections on Sunday.
