MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS
In Härnösand, jobs are the big issue for September's election
When people head to the polls this September in general elections, there's a lot of issues at stake in the country's 290 municipalities.
In Härnösand, many believe more jobs are key for the area's future to keep current residents and attract new ones.
The municipality's council set aside millions of kronor last year to get more people into work and it has also drawn up a long-term development plan to boost residents and jobs.
