Melodifestivalen 1993 was the selection for the 33rd song to represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest. It was the 32nd time that this system of picking a song had been used. 1569 songs were submitted to SVT for the competition. The final was broadcast on TV2 and Sveriges Radio's P4 network. The show was watched by 4,284,000 people, with a total of 166,045 votes cast.
Televoting
After the juries had selected 5 songs for a "super final", it was revealed that the TV viewers would choose the winner by regional televoting. However, the voting became a bit repetitive, and televoting was not re-introduced until six years later when it was combined with regional juries.
