Norway's center-right opposition party has won local elections, with the conservatives of former Prime Minister Erna Solberg ahead of the governing Labor Party.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Norway’s center-right opposition party has won local elections in the Scandinavian country, putting the conservatives of former Prime Minister Erna Solberg ahead of the governing social democratic Labor Party locally for the first time since 1924.
Labor, which for decades was Norway’s largest party in local elections, had its worst results in nearly a century in Monday’s vote, making Hoeyre the largest party locally since 1924. It even surpassed Labor in Oslo, the capital. The right-wing, anti-immigration Progress Party came in third with 11.4% of the votes, up 3.2 percentage points from the last local elections.
