The left group to which Danish Prime Minister Matta Frederksen belongs won one seat in the general elections held on Tuesday, preserving her position in office.
“I am very happy,” said Friedrixen, the Social Democratic Socialism, who has been the prime minister for the past four years, upon her arrival in Parliament early on Wednesday. “I am very happy,” added Friedriksen, the Socialist Socialism.
The latest votes that were sorted in these severe competitive elections gave 87 seats to the “Red” Red Bloc, and three other seats in Greenland and the Faro Islands of the Kingdom of Denmark, giving its mass of 90 seats in Parliament consisting of 179 seats.
With the assistance of three populist parties, the right-wing “blue” bloc won 72 seats in Denmark and one seat in the Faro Islands. It is an alliance of liberals and conservatives.
The expectations of the centre “moderate” party, created this year by former liberal prime minister Lars Luke Rasmussen, to play the role of king-maker were dashed by Friedrixen’s last-second triumph.
The early elections took place against the backdrop of the “mink” animal crisis. After ordering their urgent eradication due to worries about the Corona virus in a move that was later revealed to be illegal, one of the government-supporting parties threatened to abandon it unless the elections were called in order to regain the confidence of the electorate.
Danish elections result in a simple majority for the left.
