Norrbotten Party

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Norbotten Party (Norrbottenspartiet) is a minor, regional party in Sweden. The base of the party is the most northern Swedish province, Norrbotten County.

In the 2002 Swedish general elections the party attempted to gain parliamentary representation in the Swedish Riksdag by securing a seat directly through votes from the election district of Norrbotten County. This attempt failed though.

The party leader is Lars Törnman which is also the leader of the local municipality party of Kiruna.

It is not clear whether or not the Norrbotten Party will participate in the 2006 Swedish general elections.
