I was assuming an AR or similar discussing an AGM, for example, from your description. I see the Swe phrase as most often used in election situations -- board of company, association, or similar, or in a political party or similar situation.

But its the context that determines -- what's yours?

But the problem is in adding text.
The original doesn't say "reelected" or that the chair got a further mandate, it simply says that "continued confidence" was shown.

(If it talked about "reelection," there wouldn't be a problem here.
The problem with the text is that instead of talking about a reelection, it simply (and only) says that "continued confidence" was shown. In other words, implying without explicitly stating the party was reelected. The phrase "continued confidence" is meant state a continued term of office, i.e. reelection.
