The Swedish Election Authority, Valmyndigheten, says a referendum on nuclear power in Karlshamn should be held on election day this fall, not on June 14 as previously decided. The authority cites the need to develop a stable IT system, stating that an earlier date poses a risk to planned quality assurance. The proposal is not mandatory, and Karlshamn's municipal councilor Magnus Gärdebring strongly opposes it, arguing it is not Valmyndigheten's role to suggest when to hold a referendum.
