According to Finland's national public broadcasting company, one Finnish MEP also pushed the wrong button.
https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-10707635 https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-10707635: "However, Pietikäinen later said she voted wrong accidentally. Her intention was to support the directive."
"Pietikäinen tosin kertoi myöhemmin äänestäneensä vahingossa väärin. Hänen tarkoituksensa oli ollut kannattaa esitystä."
It seems that it is very easy to press wrong buttons.
- bjornedstrom 8y agoFrom what I understand, the voting order was changed last minute. I am not surprised people screw up in those circumstances.
- olodus 8y agoThe Swedish reps who pushed wrong said there were some changes last minute to the agenda, confusing them and in effect probably caused the wrong button press. Though I haven't been able to find for certain if this was the case. I am glad most Swedish reps voted against but will definitely use my vote next election to try and remove the ones that voted for (yes there were some that voted for and not by mistake) and people incompetent enough to not know what button to press when it comes down to it.
