Congratulation to the left wing parties of Denmark! 🇩🇰

With 99 percent of the votes counted, the left is in a far stronger position to form a government than the right.

1. They have 84 seats VS 77.
2. They are fewer parties who need to agree (5 VS 6).
3. 58 or their seats belong to just two parties (S and SF).

Now the negotiations begin, and anything is possible. But right now, the results look like a left wing future for Denmark, with a focus on the environment, the climate, and education.

@randahl congrats, Denmark! 🏆

@randahl

who are these 14?

@A_Mimi @randahl Moderaterne, I think. I’m not sure why they’re all separate. They seem about as leftish as the Socialdemokratiet.
@A_Mimi @randahl Okay. I get it. Red bloc on the left, blue bloc on the right, and the Moderaterne(as Wikipedia says) rebuke bloc politics and prefer a coalition government composed of both blocs.
@randahl I hope you’re right. I didn’t have as positive a read on the results. Seeing DF gain so much worries me. What’s your take?
@randahl 84 vs 77 in a place like Denmark isn't a great sign for rest of us, where ordinary people have it far far worse where governments do the very bare minimum.
@randahl Congratulations!
