More than 90,000 voters who supported Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg's Labour Party (AP) in the parliamentary election in 2009, have now switched to the Conserative Party (Høyre).
This is shown by the February poll from Norstat, made for public broadcaster NRK.
Høyre has gained eight per cent since the last election, while Labour has dropped correspondingly.
Conservative leader Erna Solberg says the reason is that the government coalition party's policy is old fashioned, and does not function.
