Politics When the Social Democratic Party was split in 1917, Molander sided with the left-wing. After a brief experience in local politics (he served as vice chairman of the Säbrå municipal council 1920–1926), Molander was elected to Parliament and Västernorrland County Council as a candidate of the Communist Party. In 1924, he represented the Communist Party of Sweden at the Fourth World Congress of the Communist International.

In 1928, he was included into the national party board (where he remained until 1941). In 1941, he was appointed county director, thereby resigning from all political positions.
