The June List on the ballot for the 2006 parliamentary elections in Sweden. It at one point seemed possible that the party might be able to break the 4% threshold necessary to enter parliament, with the party reaching 4.5% in the polls in September 2005, but after that peak the party's support plummeted well below the 4% barrier and it seems now unlikely that the party with be able to attain seats in the Swedish parliament. The party's platform during this election focuses on a few main issues: to increase the number of people working in the private sector, hence increasing the state's tax income, a referendum on the European Union constitution and nuclear power, and increased municipal autonomy and more local referendums. All issues that are not in the party's relatively short party program, are left to the approximately 100 candidates to decide on. The voters are then encouraged to vote for the individual candidate they support, rather than voting on the party itself. The Swedish parliamentary election of 2006 will be held on 17 September, 2006 to elect members to the Riksdag of Sweden. ...
