Decreased voter turnout in all but two municipalities

2022-11-21

Voter turnout decreased by three percentage points in the 2022 election to the Riksdag (Swedish parliament). The decrease was greater in municipalities with an already low voter turnout compared to municipalities with a higher turnout. The decline was even greater in the electoral districts with the lowest voter turnout in 2018.
