LibertarianMunicipalPeople was originally a slate to contest municipal elections in Sweden, first proposed and manned by libertarian socialists and syndicalists. In late February 1950, representatives from syndicalist organizations from Gästrikland, northern Uppland, Älvdalen, as well as individuals from Stockholm, Västmanland and Härjedalen gathered to form a platform to contest municipal elections. Thus FKF emerged, formed outside of the SACproper. The 'National Organization of Libertarian Municipal People' was founded on June 28, 1950. FKF won 51 seats in 16 municipalities in the 1950 municipal elections, becoming the largest party in Älvdalen with 10 seats. In 1959 FKF won three seats in Ekshäradmunicipality. FKF won municipal representation in Ljusdal in 1976. A text published by SAC in 1963 defined the role of FKF in the following way: "Syndikalismen bildar alltså inget politiskt parti, men utanför SAC har syndikalister bildat Frihetliga Kommunalfolket som har haft relativt stora framgångar, bland annat i vissa områden i Dalarna. Den kommunala självstyrelsen har i syndikalismen en hängiven försvarare, och den frihetliga kommunalrörelsen är ett uttryck för direkt frihetlig aktion underifrån." In the 1994 elections the candidature FKF was used in two municipalities, Älvdalen and Ljusdal. FKF got 3,6% of votes in Ljusdal and 2,8% in Älvdalen. Ahead of the 2002 elections FKF in Ljusdal formed an alliance with Rädda Ljusdalsbygden, a group formed by VPK dissidents. Together they formed Frihetliga Ljusdalsbygden. However, that alliance seems to have broken down after the elections. Out of two councilors elected on behalf of FLB, one is from FKF. In the 1998 elections in Älvdalen FKF got 286 votes and 3 seats. Notably both the Älvdalen and Färilalocal organizations of the SAC belonged to the pragmatic fraction that broke away in end of 1990s. FKF in Älvdalen is involved in a regional coalition Folkkampanjen för sjukvården. FKF has a replacement seat in the Associations of Municipalities of Dalarna.
