The website New Statesman America declared in 2019:
{{Cquote|Social democratic parties, meanwhile, are facing a mixture of electoral decline and challenge from both the greens and the left. Only Portugal, where the Socialist Party holds 37 per cent of seats and leads a coalition government with the far left, has bucked the trend. Sweden’s social democrats, down to 28 per cent of the vote in last year’s election, cling precariously to power in a caretaker government. Elsewhere, the typical fate of the classic social democrat parties, for example in Austria and Denmark, is to hover around 25 per cent. In both Germany and Italy, where strong social democracy was a lynchpin of the postwar anti-fascist settlement, support for social democrats has slumped below 20 per cent.<ref>[https://www.newstatesman.com/world/europe/2019/01/will-far-right-triumph-europe-2019 Will the far right triumph in Europe in 2019?], New Statesman America, January 2019</ref>}}
