(Local) Sweden’s new immigrant party, Nyans, has won a council seat in the port city of Landskrona, the first elected position it has won since it was founded in 2019.
Ever since the September 11 election, it has been touch and go whether the party would make it over the two percent threshold to enter the council in … Landskrona, but after the vote count was finally complete on Wednesday morning, the party had gained its first council seat.
“It feels super exciting to get the chance to affect and experience how political work takes place on the city council,” the party’s lead candidate, Sead Busuladzic, told Sweden’s public broadcaster SVT.
