About the referendum
Municipal referendums are advisory. The municipal council is not bound by the outcome.
The referendum was held after a citizens' initiative, a petition among the municipality's eligible voters.
The municipality does not report the number of eligible voters. The turnout is the municipality's own figure.
It was possible to vote blank, and blank votes were counted as valid.
The municipality's percentages are calculated on all voters, including invalid votes. Here the shares are calculated on valid votes.
The figures are transcribed by hand from the municipality's report and checked against the source's totals and percentages. Sources (in Swedish):
