The election became needed as federal president Jude Bjärnesson resigned after merely two months in office. Most of the candidates are same as at the presidential election in February, 2006. The leader of the Liberal Party Anders Lindén did not apply for candidacy for financial reasons; the party could not afford a new campaign in such a short time. Also the Communists did not have their own candidate, but supported the Social Democrat candidate Reidar Finnehammar. The leader of the Poor People's Party of Adal Ecke Berg runs for the presidency as the only new candidate.

Candidate numbers were raffled by the Ministry of Justice on 1 April, 2006. By the law, there is no number one in use.
