Norwegian Elections 2013

[Ian]

Norway goes to the polls tomorrow. I know this because my Norwegian cousin keeps posting articles about it on Facebook.

Anybody have any thoughts on this? Anybody actually know anything about it?

[Svartalf]

No idea, where's normal when you need him?

[Bella Fortuna]

I bet they'll elect someone. Maybe.

The right wiingers...traditional..will win, pushing out the red greens. The extremist national party is in the game.

Well I assume there will be a few moderate non-extreme parties and one or more will win forming a sane moderate government.

Politics is only interesting when there is a chance of lunatics getting in (UK occasionally , US always)

Looks like the red-greens (currently in power) have taken the lead in the polls over the summer.

Red-greens together make poo brown!

Cue "...oh, but 'right' in Yerup and Oz is really a light version of Marxist socialism. In the US what they call 'left' is really a version of neofascism and 'right' is akin to the Spanish Inquisition." ... in 1, 2, 3....
