Uh oh politics: swedish election

[Harkain]

For all you swedes out there browsing this page

Here is another "election compass" this one from the svt+sr (swedish state telivision and radio), I personally like taking these and as many as possible, this one specificly being good with each question having a small background tab and a pro/cons tab.

I recomend taking this and as many others as you can find!

I gotta say.. that was probably the best one I've done so far. Also, the result was actually as I thought it would be as well.
Unlike some tests, this one doesn't depend on 1 topic being a decisive factor for which party to vote for.

You swedes choose your parties based on internet polls?

It's not an internet poll.

What it is, is a test. You answer a bunch of questions, 50 in this case. Depending on how you answer on the multiple choice questions, you will get a certain amount of points for a certain party and when you've answered all those questions it'll tell you which parties you stand closer to. Ofc we don't vote according to it but it's a great tool to use and actually read up on what the 10 parties think on different subjects, instead of reading their whole manifesto's.

Unlike some "democratic" nations that only has 2 or 3 parties we actually have a bunch of them and can put our vote on the party that think the most like us not just on a third of the subjects being debated.

I completed the poll and this is the guy who knows..... http://valpejl.se/kandidat/37999/Lars_Isovaara

Unfortunately the quiz is in some foreign tongue and makes no sense to me at all, but randomly choosing answers on multiple choice questions got me through university so I know it must be right

Our parties have massive manifestos that A: you have to buy, like a book. And B: would the most boring book ever to read.

this means that all the political monkeys that stop you in the street haven't read their own manifesto and can't advise you on reading it either. So we tend to vote on who hates who the most instead.

Well I clicked each option in turn for a unrealistic balanced view, and apparantly the Forget-me-not party is the most middle of the road, no idea what's going on party. However without the test I'd go for the Shamrock St Patrick's day party as they would probably bring down the price of beer.

However, I wouldn't rule out the Morrisson's Supermarket Party as their policies should be fresh daily and at least she's taken the effort to look attractive for her picture.

After reading Dulla's post I checked up on some of the candidates and this is what I found out :

"Like many other people my age, I have moved around among various second hand and demolition contracts for several years, and therefore burns, especially on housing issues"

Sounds like a pyromaniac who will set fire to all the pine!!!!!!!!!!

Raendoos, you managed to get picked to vote for our Nationalist Party.
