Karlshamn Nuclear Power Referendum Campaigns Underway Ahead of June Vote
Key Points
  • A referendum on June 14 will decide whether to build new nuclear power in Karlshamn.
  • The Election Authority has advised against holding the referendum in June.
  • Campaign events include door-knocking, town meetings, and a lecture by a Moderate Party councilor.

The referendum will address three questions about constructing new nuclear power facilities in Karlshamn. Until the vote, the yes and no sides are campaigning for their views on the issue. In addition to door-knocking and town square meetings, the sides have planned some events during the spring.

At the end of March, the Moderate Party is inviting the public to a lecture with Fabian Sjöberg (M), who is a municipal councilor in Östhammar where the Forsmark nuclear power plant is located. It is unclear whether this lecture is part of the yes or no campaign. The Election Authority advises against a referendum in June, though the specific reasons for this recommendation have not been disclosed.

The exact arguments of the yes and no sides remain unknown, as do details about other planned spring events. The campaign activities continue as the community prepares for the decisive vote.
