In previous elections, the polling booths have been on Stora torget, but this year there will be no space for them due to the redevelopment.

Therefore, three alternative locations were investigated: Dragarbrunn square, Celsius square and Resecentrum.

The choice fell on the last - despite the fact that the police expressed in the risk analysis that it was, according to the authority, the worst proposal.

- We are worried, there is a lot of public transport, taxis, pedestrians and cyclists in the same place, says Magnus Almerfors.

Mohamad Hassan (L), first vice-chairman of the municipal board's work committee, says that the choice of location took place in dialogue with traffic planners and the police.

- If we had stood somewhere else, not all parties would have had a seat, he says.

The police instead suggested Fyri's square, but chose to approve the Travel Center as the polling station.
