Ahead of the 2026 parliamentary election, O is seeking parliamentary candidates who are prepared to represent those voters who feel that none of the established parties represent them.O is working to make Swedish representative democracy fully representative by giving voters the opportunity to vote ‘no’ to all existing options – a ‘none of the above’ option that counts as a valid vote in the election and results in actual representation.Voters in Sweden can currently only vote ‘yes’ to one of the options offered on the ballot — a direct ‘yes’ to a party. Abstaining from voting, casting a blank or invalid vote does not result in representation for the voter; instead, the seats, resources and political power that these voters represent are distributed among the parties that take their seats in the Riksdag — an indirect ‘yes’ to all parties.About the roleAs an O parliamentary candidate, you are registering your consent to stand as a candidate for O in the 2026 general election.If O is allocated seats and, in accordance with the Electoral Act and the rules of the Riksdag, you are offered a seat as an O Member of Parliament (MP), you undertake to fulfil the mandate that O’s voters have given the party.This mandate involves representing the voters’ ‘no’ vote in the Riksdag by voting ‘no’ on all government bills, motions and proposals put to the vote during the parliamentary term.The aim is to ensure that voters who have chosen O receive the representation they voted for and that their mandate is not converted into support for other parties.As an O MP, you will therefore vote ‘no’ in every vote throughout the entire term of office. No exceptions. No negotiations. The mandate entails consistently representing the voters who have chosen O.The role is party-ideologically neutral.…
