  Elections in Norway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Norway, elections are held every second year, alternating between elections for the Parliament and local elections, both of which are held on a 4-yearly basis.
In recent elections a vote in the northernmost county Finnmark has counted approximately twice a vote in the capital Oslo or the surrounding county Akershus.

 Norwegian parliamentary election, 2005 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The election was won by the opposition centre-left Red-Green Coalition, which took 87 seats, dominated by the Labour Party's 61 seats.
The red-green coalition was the winner of the election and formed a majority government, with Jens Stoltenberg as prime minister, on October 17, 2005, as soon as a national budget for 2006 had been proposed by the old government.
This disparity is caused by the Norwegian electoral system, which assigns seats according to a formula favouring the geographically larger counties with small populations that are located proportionally further from the the capital, and disadvantages the more dense populated counties.

 Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the Norwegian Storting
Norwegian party politics trace their origins to the establishment of parliamentary rule in 1884, an event which led to the foundation of Høyre and Venstre - literally "Right" and "Left", respectively, but known in English as the Conservatives and the Liberals.
In the election, two new political forces gained representation in the Storting: the right-wing, anti-tax Anders Lange's Party (subsequently renamed the Progress Party); and the leftist Socialist Association for the Election, an alliance of earlier Labour breakaway groups with the Communist Party.
The outcome of the election allowed Dr. Brundtland's minority Labour administration to remain in power; the vote also highlighted the prominent role of women in Norwegian politics: Labour, the Center Party and the Conservatives were all led by women, and females won 65 of the 165 seats in the Storting.

 Indikator 1982:13. The 1992 Swedish Election
The 1982 election deals with two fundamental issues of international interest: the shrinkage of the welfare state in an ailing economy and the gradual socialization of the private sector of the economy according to a new model, the wage-earner funds.
This is of importance in elections that coincide with periods of unemployment, as in 1982.
If the election results are similar to those in 1970 and the Social Democrats emerge larger than the non-socialist parties taken together but without a majority of their own because of the Communists' (and now perhaps also the Environmental party's) mandate, the question of forming a government will be less clear.

 Henry Minde: The Saami Movement, the Norwegian Labour Party and Saami Rights
When Norwegian nationalism reached a peak during the emancipation from Sweden in 1905,[8] the Storting Representative Saba wrote a Saami national anthem.As we shall see, the expectations held by the Saami Movement in Finnmark were naive and unrealistic.
Although the reindeer Saami had formed their own national organization, The Norwegian National association of Reindeer Saami (NRL), as early as in 1948, the organization was not until the 70s very interested in other than reindeer industry questions and the rights of the reindeer Saami.
The fact that Rønbeck as a Norwegian in the Saami district Karasjok was supported by the Saami, conferred on him the authority as an expert on "the Saami Question".

Although almost to a man, Nigerians, mindful of the past, are irrevocably committed to the defeat of a third term bid for any elected official including the President, echoes of stealth manoeuvres by the men in power refuse to go away.
The president's party is in control of the majority of legislators in a majority of the states in the country, so that it is not inconceivable that it can use its overwhelming parliamentary superiority to foist a third-term president on Nigeria.
In fairness to President Obasanjo, he has been silent on the issue but he must know that his silence is unwholesome as it has only succeeded in fuelling speculations that he may well be an ardent supporter or sponsor of the third term scheme.
