The electoral authority releases a list of polling stations with invalidated early votes

The electoral authority must "as soon as possible" make a list of which polling stations were affected by the technical problems that caused some early votes to be declared invalid, the authority writes on Monday.

They have not been able to identify which voters were affected, but they know the locations and times, and will post a list on val.se. It will probably be on Tuesday.

This applies to polling stations all over the country.

If you keep track of when you left your early vote, you will know if it is time to vote again on election day - it is always the vote on election day that counts, even if you voted early.

Please note that you should not vote early again, because then all early votes will be invalid - you cannot vote early multiple times.

According to the Electoral Authority, the error consisted in some early votes being registered with the same voter registration number as the previous person's. This has led to the first voter being registered twice, while the second voter's vote was not registered at all.

Initially, it was thought that the technical problems affected a maximum of 4,000 out of 1.4 million early voters across the country, but it will land at less than 500 according to the authority.

It was in Nynäshamn municipality that it was discovered last week.

As of the fourth of September, the system has been working as it should, and no early votes cast after that are affected.

On Monday morning, the Electoral Authority will inform the party leaders of the situation.
