The Conservative Party (H) gains support, and is now ahead of the right wing Progress Party (FrP) on Opinion's latest poll made for the ANB news agency. This means that H is Norway's second largest party.

The Conservatives now have the support of 21.7 per cent of the electorate, up 1.8 percentage points from the previous poll and a gain of 4.5 points since the September election. The Progress Party, on the other hand drops 2.4 points since the Oktober poll, to 20.9 per cent.

Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg's Labour Party maintains the 33.3 per cent from October, and the poll would mean that the red/green coalition would have lost seven seats in Parliament, if these had been election results.

Socialist Left (SV)         6.4 (-0.4)
