Held · The next Folketing election has no announced date. Valg.info does not calculate a deadline.
How the election works
The Folketing is elected proportionally. The prime minister can call an election before the term ends.
Because an election can be called at any time, valg.info shows no countdown and calculates no deadline from earlier elections.
Why it matters in Norway
Denmark is a Nordic neighbour and EU member.
Brief context, no political assessment.

Seats elected in Denmark
175 of the Folketing’s 179 seats are elected in Denmark. This is Statistics Denmark’s allocation from the March 24, 2026 election: 135 constituency and 40 adjustment seats. It describes the election allocation, not current membership.
The two seats from Greenland and two from the Faroe Islands are outside this table. Missing data does not mean zero seats. We therefore do not show a complete coalition calculation for the whole Folketing here.
