Most ballot papers have a few or many names on them. These are people you can suggest as your choice for a seat in The Riksdag, Region Assembly or Municipal Assembly – if the party wins seats. If you do not want to place your vote on a specific person, you can ignore this.
If you do want to vote for a person, put an X next to that person. You can only do this for one person. If there is more than one X on you ballot, the personal vote will not count, but the vote for the party will.
