Donald Duck Party


The Donald Duck Party is a Swedish joke political party named after the Disney character Donald Duck. The party has received joke or protest votes without actually existing for several years; however, before the 2002 Swedish general election, Malmö citizen Bosse Persson had ballots made for the party. Contrary to popular belief, however, the party was never officially registered with the Election Authority.
In the 2002 national election, the party received 10 votes from pre-printed ballots and an unknown number of hand-written ballots.
In the 2006 elections, the party received 225 votes, placing it in the middle of the pack - 21st place out of about 40 parties running for office. All votes were write-in.
In the 2010 elections, the party received 107 votes, making it the largest party without pre-printed ballots, and the 21st largest party in the Swedish riksdag elections.
In the 2014 elections, the party received 133 votes, the 24th most voted for party in the Riksdag elections and the third largest party without pre-printed ballots.
