Swedes are just about to go to the polls. In 2022, some precincts had unprecedented problems with lines. In our article in @electoralstudies.bsky.social, @axelcronert.bsky.social and I find that these lines reduced turnout with 1–1.5 pp in affected precincts. We hope for fewer problems this time.

Does general upper secondary education stimulate political participation more than vocational education? In short, no, and it can even be the other way around. Find out our just published paper in @ejprjournal.bsky.social www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
