Today, Katrin Wissing, who was previously a municipal politician in Åre, participated in a press conference where her party colleagues in the home county presented their election manifestos.
The Green Party in Jämtland Härjedalen has never had a parliamentary seat.
Ahead of this election, Katrin Wissing tops the county's list.
In order for a party to have a seat in the Riksdag, at least four percent of the votes are required.
Opinion figures for the party are not gracious, a voter survey yesterday showed 2.9 percent.
But Katrin Wissing is hopeful and convinced that "it will go the way".
- If we only look at Norrland, it is a very positive trend, she says.
- Previously it was 1.2 percent here and now it has increased to 3.8.
But she also notes that it is tough to be an environmentalist in the countryside.
