Voter turnout of national parliamentary elections in Norway 1945-2017
Results of the 2017 parliamentary election
The Norwegian parliament consists of 169 representatives from all 19 counties. It is the highest political body in the country. Its tasks include legislation and adopting the national budget, as well as monitoring the work of the government and the public administration. In the last election in 2017, the social-democratic party Arbeiderpartiet obtained the most votes. However, the conservative party Høyre and the progressive party Fremskrittspartiet formed a coalition led by Erna Solberg, the Prime Minister of Norway.
Voting intentions
And what can be expected for the next election, planned in September 2021? According to the latest surveys, the voting intentions do not entirely reflect the last election. If elections would take place tomorrow, The Progress Party would lose votes and thus, the centrist party (Senterpartiet) would now become the third party in Norway.
