It is important to note that the listing of the results have been made with the 21st-century county mergers in mind to enable consistency. As a result, the Scanian and West Gothian constituencies that were in separate counties as of 1973 have been listed under their current counties, although the names of the original constituency from 1973 are included. "Share" denotes how large a share of the constituency each municipality had as well as the share of the national vote of 5,168,996 held by the overall constituency.

Counties not in accordance with provinces include the three Småland counties of Jönköping, Kalmar (including Öland) and Kronoberg. From an enlarged perspective, the three provinces of Västergötland, Bohuslän and Dalsland form Västra Götaland. In 1973 those consisted of three separate counties, namely, Bohuslän, Skaraborg and Älvsborg. Skåne County did not exist in 1973 either, with the province divided between Kristianstad County in the north and Malmöhus County in the south. Örebro County is divided between three separate provinces centered around Närke. As a result, Västmanland County is smaller than the province. Stockholm County is also consisting part of the provinces of Södermanland and Uppland, the latter of which forms Uppsala County in its north. Farther north, Gävleborg is a merger between Gästrikland and Hälsingland, Västernorrland consists of Medelpad and Ångermanland, whereas Lapland is divided between Västerbotten and Norrbotten counties. Härjedalen is a single municipality roughly corresponding with the provincial borders, merged into Jämtland County.

Gothenburg/Bohus were divided into one constituency representing Gothenburg Municipality and one representing Bohuslän, whereas Älvsborg was divided into two constituencies, one in the north and one in the south. Skaraborg had one constituency for the whole county.
