Hedemora Party
Hedemora Party is a local political party in Hedemora, Sweden. It was founded in March 2002 by a group of former Social Democrats. The split was caused by the accusation that the local branch in Långshyttan controlled the entire party municipality, and thus the entire municipality. In municipal elections the same year the party got 474 votes and two seats in the municipal council. It got its strongest support in the centre of the municipality, and much less in surrounding areas such as Långshyttan, Vikmanshyttan and Dala-Husby.
After the elections HP formed part of a six-party governing coalition, unseating decades of Social Democratic rule in the municipality. Coalition partners were Moderate Party, Centre Party, Christian Democrats, People's Party - Liberals and Green Party.
In the 2006 election, Hedemora Party lost support and got 191 votes. They remain in the municipal council but with only one seat.
