The Swiss People's Party (SVP) of the canton of Graubünden has achieved its goal of regaining the second National Council seat lost to the Social Democratic Party (SP) in 2019. Magdalena Martullo-Blocher and newly elected Roman Hug will now represent the mountain canton in the National Council. This result marks a significant victory for the SVP, which has been the largest party in the canton since 2003. The SVP has been able to maintain its majority in the canton's government, despite the SP's gains in the 2019 elections. The SVP's success in the canton is largely due to its strong support from rural areas, where it has traditionally been the most popular party. The SVP's victory in Graubünden is a major boost for the party, which is currently the largest in Switzerland.
