The coverage of the manic month of national parliamentary elections continues with a look at the upcoming Norwegian parliamentary election, where Erna Solberg is looking to become the first Prime Minister to win three consecutive terms in office. In the Land of the Midnight Sun, who is going to come out on top?
With just over a week to go until polling day in Norway, Sam and Chern take the opportunity to look at the state of the parties as their campaign comes to a close. Erna Solberg’s Conservative party looks set to struggle to hold onto control of the Storting, whilst Jonas Gahr Støre’s historically successful Labour Party is eyeing a return to power for the first time since 2013. How have the Labour Party managed to come first in every single election since 1927? In that environment, how did Solberg manage to form a long-term right-wing government? What political space do the Centre, Liberal and Christian Democratic parties occupy? Why have the Centre Party recently been a reliable ally of the left? All these questions and more answered in this week’s podcast.
