Major Upset In Norwegian Elections.
Salve
Bergen, Norway- Well another election has come and gone, but what has it taught us about the present state of our great country. More than anything I see a population who by and large has become increasingly apathetic about the state of Norwegian politics. That is with exclusion however to the Red Resistance Front, who have shown exceptional dedication to making their voices heard yesterday. For example, in a shocking turn of events, the RRF was able to seize nearly 20% of the congressional seats. Congratulations to the Russians for pulling off this feat, hopefully their dedication can be put forward into improving this great country of ours together, and possibly their exuberance will catch one throughout the other parties as well.
Here is a breakdown of the support shown from the top 5 parties:
Name:- Percent of Congress---- Percent of Party Voting
The Binary Party- 39.79---- 31%
Red Resistance Front- 19.89---- 90%
The Golden Party- 18.23---- 26%
The Technocrats- 14.36---- 68%
Imperialistpartiet- 7.73---- 35%
As you can see the clear winners in yesterdays elections were the members of the RRF. By far the most disappointing turnout appeared from the Golden Party with a meager 26% turnout.
I would like to wish the new congress and the new president, Mendel, luck in the coming month, and hope our Russian brothers decide to use this opporitunity to better the future for all Norwegians, Russians, and Finns alike.

Good article, voted 🙂
There has generally been very little activity in eNorway these last few weeks, and it was shown very clear in the general elections. Only TT of the \"Norwegian\" parties managed to get a reasonably good percentage as shown by your overview. Let\'s hope that june will be a better month for online activity 😉
I find the results hilarious, personally.

Really? I have been saying all along that you will have great influence 🙂
I would not call this a major upset..
The has been a increasing tendency of political inactivity in eNoway the last few months. Personally i believe it\'s a good thing that RRF got as many congressmen as they did. Perhaps this will awaken the rest of the eNorwegian population...
@ Cikey Increasing political inactivy is one thing, the second largest party in Norway being overtaken by a party of 40 members is another. I believe this is a major upset. I do however hope as well this will come as a slap in the face to those who did not take 60 seconds to vote.
Salve: You might call it an upset, but It should come as no surprise to anyone that has paid close attention to the political situation in eNorway.
If I\'d not been political active (and by many standards quite controversial) I might have been more active in writing analysis of the political situation in eNorway. I believe I would have predicted this, even though the RRF got a few more congressmen than I would have guessed.
Russians have already been politically active, before the invasion and after, and their dedicated support towards Socialism and the re-birth of our Motherland has payed off.
The results are hilarious. I was expecting that we would gain 1 - 2 seats, not 20% of the Congress.

My point exactly, coming from Manifesto himself.

\"Your world - we\'ll conquer.\" 😃
Some of the support for RRF came from outside their party from the other Nationalistic Russian parties that were not permitted to run in the elections. We stand united for a free Russia, even though we have different visions of what that freed Russia should look like.
Remember that parties like RRF gets votes from other parties as well so this aint accurate at all.
That goes for every party..

There is only one other Russian party, and that\'s United Russia with around 3-4 active members.

A very good point to why the Russian bid for congress was so impressive.
