Swedish voters' attitudes towards globalization barriers impact voting choices significantly
The article looks at how people in Sweden feel about globalization barriers like trade and immigration, and how these attitudes affect their voting choices. Richer and more educated voters tend to support freer trade and more immigration. Conservative voters prefer freer trade but higher immigration barriers. When looking at voting behavior, attitudes towards immigration barriers have a bigger impact than trade barriers. People who want more immigration barriers were more likely to switch their votes to the anti-globalization Swedish Democrats party.
