The National Democrats (Nationaldemokraterna, ND) were a political party in Sweden, formed by a radical faction of national board of the Sweden Democrats (SD) in October 2001 after they were expelled from the SD. The party described itself as a democratic nationalist and ethnopluralist party. The party disbanded on 23 April 2014. In the 2002 general election the party received 9,248 votes, far below the 4% threshold necessary for parliamentary representation. In the 2006 general election, the party received 3,064 votes (0.06%); however, they had representation in two municipalities south of Stockholm. In the 2010 general election, the party received 1,141 votes (0.02%). The chairman of the party was Marc Abramsson. On 2 February 2008, the old party logo consisting of a blue and yellow sail was replaced with an orange cloudberry flower.
