with an opportunity to cast a personal vote to alter the order of candidates on a list as long as the affected individual candidates get five per cent of the vote

5% of the vote on the list, of the votes in the constituency or of what exactly?

I ask because Sweden uses a list system with an opportunity to cast a personal vote to alter the order of candidates on a list as long as the affected individual candidates get five per cent (eight per cent to national parliament) of the vote on the list in the constituency. This has had a very limited effect, because the bar is set to high, in particular for larger parties. I would much prefer the finnish system that has no bar.
