The Conservative Party moves back in May

HøyreThe Conservative Party (Høyre) moves back 3,8 percentage points to 28,7 percent on the latest poll from May.

Whereas the Conservative Party moves back, the Labor Party moves forward by 0,6 percentage points, and takes the top spot of the ranking with 30,2 percent.

"This poll shows that the election is not finalized, although the Conservatives are in a very good position," says deputy leader of the Conservative Party Jan Tore Sanner 

However, all together the four non-socialist parties still constitute the majority at 98 out of 169 government representatives.

The remaining results from the poll show that the Christian Democrats move up to 6 percent, an increase of 1,1 percentage points. The Liberal Left increases to 5,2 percent, up 0,8, whereas the Progress Party moves back 0,6 percentage points to 15,1 percent.
