I wish!
In southern Sweden we barely get any snow and when we do it melts 3-4 days alter and then we ice-skate to work (or break our necks trying). >.< |

I didn't vote because I just didn't find any party that suits me  There's only left and right radicals  
That being said: I was quite surprised I could vote here, since I'm still voting for Belgium.
And for Mortibus: consider the south as Friesland in weather terms (just a degree or two warmer)

But I vote for my country! 
More serious note: I am of the same opinion as you BUT... I will never vote uneducated or against my beliefs (I can drop some things here and there but not the core).
So far: there is no lesser evil for me over here. It might be down to me lacking the details in knowing about the parties involved, but what I went over: it seems everything is either sticking to the same or radical and I cannot in good conscience vote for that.
So they'll have to wait when I'm more up to par with the details in politics in this country and when I'm a full fledged citizen. Kinda find it a cheaty system to allow me to vote when I'm still citizen and voting for another country. |

@Morphineus as a EU citizen you can vote on the local level, for county (länsstyrelse) and municipality. Only citizens of Sweden can vote for the national parliament, as far as I know.

Ah okay, it wasn't clear in the letter. As it didn't mention any restrictions. I expected it to be only local, but my fiancee (who is Swe) assumed it was also for the national parliament.

haha wouldnt suprise me at all...however, its entertaining that our prime minister said that if they did not agree on a budget yesterday he would resign...and ofc - as the lying bastard he is...he did not |
They must have seen a documentary about politics in Italy and fell in love with it 
It could be worse though, look on the bright side Ankh, at least you get to vote. We didn't have such privilege. After the old PM went to social services the parliament thought that elections were too expensive and auto-elected the new guy (leader of the rival party) who then made a joint venture with the other party so we don't have parties anymore and we can't choose anything. Oligarchy 101 xD |

Thanks for the tip! 
I expected it would be some 80 or 90 year old leading a party like that... nope same age as me, a 'Nazi' from the 90's. Guess he wasn't popular and went to extremes to get noticed. |
