Donald Duck, the king and God are among those who snagged votes in the Swedish general elections, a final list of hand-written votes published Thursday by the election authority showed.

Hand-written ballots are allowed in Swedish polls. Voters normally use them to write down the name of the established party they wish to vote for, but random options also pop up on ballots.

More than 120 people wanted to see Donald Duck, the Walt Disney Company's cartoon character, get elected in Sunday's vote.

My party meanwhile garnered four votes, while Myself got two, the same amount as Jesus, Jesus Christ and God.

The king meanwhile won three votes, one more than common sense in Sweden written in English on the ballot.

Harry Potter, Mickey Mouse and Couch potato party each got one. The two largest were the Pirate Party and the Feminist Initiative, which both raked in less than one percent of votes.
