The original question was phrased by the source as follows: "Hva er viktigst for deg ved valg av parti?"

The Norwegian Parliament (Stortinget) is elected every four years. There are 169 seats in the Norwegian Parliament, distributed in accordance with a method known as proportional representation. The system guarantees that political parties gain seats in the Norwegian Parliament in proportion to the number of votes cast for them throughout the country.
