Västra Götaland County North (Riksdag constituency)

Västra Götaland County North is one of the multi-member constituencies used to elect members to the Riksdag, the national legislature of Sweden. It encompasses the northern portion of Västra Götaland County.

As a Riksdag constituency, Västra Götaland County North elects a specific number of directly elected representatives based on the county's population. The specific number of seats allocated to the constituency fluctuates slightly from election to election, based on national population changes. These seats are allocated proportionally to political parties based on the votes received within the constituency.

The constituency includes municipalities such as Trollhättan, Uddevalla, and others in the northern part of the county. It differs from the Västra Götaland County West and Västra Götaland County East constituencies, which cover other geographic portions of the same county. Each of these constituencies holds separate elections and contributes to the overall composition of the Riksdag.

The administrative body responsible for overseeing elections in Västra Götaland County North is the County Administrative Board (Länsstyrelsen) of Västra Götaland. They ensure the proper conduct of elections, including voter registration, polling place management, and vote tabulation.

The electoral system employed is party-list proportional representation, where voters choose a party rather than individual candidates. This system allows for a more representative allocation of seats reflecting the diversity of political views within the constituency.
