“All kommunordföranden men in Västernorrland, sweden”
“From next year all the seven municipalities in Västernorrland county, sweden to be led by men, reports the P4 Västernorrland.”
“And of Västernorrland all the city council and the county council and the regional council are the only two municipalities that ever had a female majority.”
“According to the Sofi Blombäck, political science at Mid sweden university, is this a reflection of how it looks in the rest of Sweden – we have an international viewpoint, with a high proportion of women in politics, but with a high percentage, we mean almost 50 percent.”
“– One often thinks that 40-60 somewhere, where is it okay. But for some reason, it is very often just under 50 per cent are women and just over 50 per cent of men, ” says Sofi Blombäck.”
“– It is also not so strange that it becomes so purely mathematically, considering how the parties put together their lists, ” she says.”
