Two days before the election, the last Kantar TNS survey for TV 2 shows that the smallest possible center-right majority.
(Excerpt) Read more at tv2.no ...
This polling firm projects 43 seats for the Conservatives, 26 for the Progress Party, and 8 each for the Liberals and Christian Democrats, for a total of 85 seats.
And, 51 seats for Labor, 19 for the Center Party, 10 for the Socialists, 3 for the Greens and 1 for the Communists, for a total of 84 seats.
We would actually win a majority of the seats (by only 1 seat) with less of the popular vote than the other side (47.4 versus 50.9 percent).
Were it to turn out this way, it would be o.k., because we win. But, there is no guarantee of anything. In one day, we will see if this country continues on its steady course, or lurches to the left.
Good luck .
One wonders why the agrarian Centre Party sides with the socialists and why the liberal Venstre (”left”) party sides with the right.
Wait the Conservative and Liberal party are on the same side?
Their original meaning was liberal as in classical liberalism. Today, however, they are still to the right of socialists on economic freedom, but are leftist extremists imho on issues such as immigration, islam and global warming.
They are a very troublesome partner, and I would prefer that the agrarians moved right and took their place in the coalition of the right.
Anyhow, I will go vote and do my part in a few hours.
Ironically, it might be a good idea to strategically vote for Venstre to help ensure they stay in parliament...
Though I will vote Progress as per usual...
