Jan Emanuel Johansson

During his campaign to yet again be elected into the Norrtälje municipality council in 2010, Johansson illegally used the Harley-Davidson logotype which he had redone with a message to voters. This action was brought up in the Norrtelje Tidning on 9 September 2010, where it was said to be "incredibly distasteful". Nonetheless, his campaign succeeded and he got the highest number of votes among all constituencies for the Social Democrats.

He has received several awards for his achievements, such as "Super-entrepreneur of the Year" by the Veckans Affärer paper, which he bagged for four years in a row between 2007 and 2010. In February 2012, he was investigated by the Economic Crime Unit, and accused of tax fraud and accounting offences. In June 2013, Johansson was acquitted of the tax fraud charge but found guilty at Gotlands courts of obstruction of tax regulations, despite his denial of accounting offences.

He failed to be re-elected into the Riksdagen in 2006 – an election in which he became noted for using Bert Karlsson (an erstwhile leader of the right-wing party, Ny Demokrati) as an advisor.

In 2005, Johansson put forward a motion that all asylum seekers should be put through a mandatory HIV-test, which earned him criticism from Swedish Amnesty. Johansson said that his suggestion arose from reviewing statistics of newly discovered HIV cases.

Besides winning his candidature in Norrtälje, Johansson also participated in the Riksdagen elections of the Social Democratic Party for the Stockholm constituency. He, however, was not as successful there as he got only 135 (0.007%) of the total votes cast. In 2002, a year after winning Expedition Robinson, Johansson contested another election to be elected into the Riksdagen. The elections ended with Johansson again not getting enough votes, but he was still elected into the Riksdagen as he was already in another elected seat for the Riksdagen. No other candidate got enough votes to get him off that seat.

Johansson was a member of the Riksdagen Social Committee between 2002 and 2006, and the Law Committee between 2003 and 2006. He has also, for shorter periods, sat on the Justice Committee as well as the Constitutional Committee and that of the foreign ministry.

Johansson participated in the reality series Expedition: Robinson, broadcast on SVT in 2001, which he ended up winning for a prize of SEK 500,000.

In 2001, Johansson participated in a reality series called Expedition Robinson, which was broadcast on Sveriges Television (SVT). He ended up as the series' winner and used his prize money of SEK 500,000 (SEK) to invest in his own business as well as donating some to Förbundet Djurens Rätt.

In 1998, Johansson was elected to the Norrtälje municipality council. In that year's election, he managed to get more votes in Norrtälje than any of the other candidates. In November 2013, it was revealed that Johansson had left politics to have more time to focus on his companies and businesses. In December of the same year, Norrtelje Tidning named him one of the most influential persons in Sweden.
