Parliamentary elections were held in Norway on 8 September 2025 to elect all 169 members of the Storting, the Norwegian parliament, for the 2025–2029 parliamentary term.[1][2] Advance voting took place from 11 August to 5 September.[3]

The election resulted in incumbent Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre's Labour Party winning the most seats. The opposition Conservative Party, led by former Prime Minister Erna Solberg, fell to third place for the first time since 2009. The right-wing populist Progress Party gained seats in the Storting and ended up with 47 seats, the highest seat count in the party's history; with Sylvi Listhaug becoming the leader of the largest opposition party.[4] It also marked the highest voter turn-out since 1989.[5]

The red-green bloc won a majority with 88 seats,[6] allowing Støre to continue as Prime Minister in his minority government.[7][8] The victory came after years of poor opinion polling, after which the Labour Party made a political comeback. Issues in the election included taxes, immigration, foreign relations, healthcare, and rising inequality.[9][10][11]

Background

[edit]

Government formation

[edit]
Jonas Gahr Støre became the prime minister of Norway after the 2021 election.

In the 2021 Norwegian parliamentary election, the Labour Party emerged victorious, defeating the Conservative Party of Erna Solberg. After the elections, Jonas Gahr Støre, the leader of the Labour Party, started talks about the formation of a new government with the Centre Party and Socialist Left Party.[12] The Socialist Left Party backed down from negotiations due to disagreements over environmental and welfare policies.[13] The Labour Party and the Centre Party then negotiated on forming a minority government,[14] which was officialised in October 2021.[15] Støre was sworn in as the prime minister of Norway on 14 October 2021.[16] Throughout the existence of his cabinet, however, they relied on support from the Socialist Left Party.[17]

Ministerial resignations

[edit]

Since 2021, Støre's government saw changes due to resignations of several ministers. Hadia Tajik, the minister of labour and social inclusion, was the first to resign in March 2022 due to alleged tax fraud from 2006.[18][19][20] She was succeeded as minister by Marte Mjøs Persen.[21] A month later, Odd Roger Enoksen resigned as minister of defence after sexual harassment allegations.[22] He was succeeded by Bjørn Arild Gram.[23]

In June 2023, Nettavisen reported that minister Anette Trettebergstuen was involved in a cronyist case by appointing colleagues to the board of Norsk Tipping.[24] Aftenposten also reported that she had also nominated a close colleague to the board of the Oslo Opera House.[25] Trettebergstuen resigned as minister later that month and was succeeded by Lubna Jaffery.[26] A month later, Ola Borten Moe resigned as minister,[27] while Anniken Huitfeldt was dismissed in an October 2023 government reshuffle.[28] In January 2024, the Sandra Borch and Ingvild Kjerkol plagiarism affair occurred, which led to the resignation of ministers Sandra Borch and Ingvild Kjerkol.[29][30]

Collapse of governing coalition

[edit]

In January 2025, the Centre Party left the governing coalition over disagreements with the Labour Party on energy policy relating to the European Union, resulting in the first one-party government in 25 years.[31] Eight cabinet ministers from the Centre Party were replaced,[32] including Centre Party leader and minister of finance Trygve Slagsvold Vedum, who was succeeded by former Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg.[33]

Stoltenberg's return has been credited with the Labour Party's resurgence in the polls, dubbed the "Jens effect"[34][35] or the "Stoltenberg effect".[36][37] Within days of his return, nicknamed the "Stoltenback",[38] the Labour Party had gained 10 points in the polls. The Centre Party's exit from government has also been credited,[39] with journalist Berit Aalborg [no] arguing that it made the Labour Party more recognisable to its former voters.[40]

Electoral system

[edit]

The election was held using party-list proportional representation in 19 multi-member constituencies based on the pre-2018 counties of Norway. The number of members to be returned from each constituency varies between 4 and 20. To determine the apportionment of the 169 seats amongst the 19 counties, a two-tier formula is used, based on population and geographic size. Each inhabitant counts one point, while each square kilometer counts 1.8 points. Each constituency is guaranteed 4 seats.[41][42]

150 of the seats (all but one in each constituency) are constituency seats. These are awarded based on the election results in each county, and are unaffected by results in other counties. Nineteen of the seats (one for each county) are levelling seats, awarded to parties above 4% of the national vote. A modification of the Sainte-Lague method, where the first quotient for each party is calculated using a divisor of 1.4 instead of 1, is used to allocate both the constituency and leveling seats. A party must cross the electoral threshold of 4% of the national vote in order to win levelling seats but may still win constituency seats even if it fails to reach this threshold. If a party wins more constituency seats than it is entitled to seats overall based on its national vote share, those additional seats are kept, with the number of seats won by other parties being reduced.[43] The system for apportioning seats to constituencies is biased in favour of rural areas since the area of the county is a factor, but the system of compensation seats reduces the effect this has on the number of seats won by each party.[41][42]

Campaign

[edit]

The incumbent government consists of the Labour Party (Ap) of Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, which has governed the country as a minority government since the previous election in 2021, first in coalition with the Centre Party (Sp) from 2021 until January 2025, and subsequently as a single-party government.[73] Støre ran for re-election in 2025, and was supported by a bloc made up of the five so-called red-green parties, which aside from the Labour and Centre parties also include the Socialist Left (SV), Red (R), and Green (MDG) parties. Together, these five parties obtained 100 of the Storting's 169 seats at the previous election. The red-green bloc was challenged in the 2025 election by four centrist-to-right-wing parties, namely former prime minister Erna Solberg's Conservative Party (H), the Progress Party (FrP), the Liberal Party (V), and the Christian Democratic Party (KrF). Both Solberg and FrP leader Sylvi Listhaug were discussed as possible contenders for the premiership in the event of an election victory for the right-wing bloc.[74] Leftist parties promised to end funding for Israeli companies by the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund due to the Gaza war.[75]

Aftermath

[edit]

Labour Party

[edit]

After the election, Prime Minister and Labour Party leader Jonas Gahr Støre described the outcome as "a difficult but successful victory". He noted that although right-wing parties have been rising across Europe, the result showed that social democratic forces still retain persuasive power and can secure majority public support amid challenges.[97] Støre reiterated the Labour Party's core policy commitments, particularly maintaining the wealth tax system, while also indicating that future tax reform should be explored through cross-party cooperation and dedicated committees to build broader consensus. In addition, he stressed that Norway must maintain a balanced energy policy, continuing to serve as a reliable energy supplier for Europe while also meeting environmental and emission-reduction responsibilities.[98]

Støre acknowledged that the Labour Party will continue to form a minority government, with its stability dependent on support from smaller left-wing parties. However, he prefers to avoid overly rigid formal agreements in order to maintain flexibility in decision-making.[99] In addition, former Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg stated that the election result gave him "the motivation to continue serving as Minister of Finance".[100]

Progress Party

[edit]

After the election, Progress Party leader Sylvi Listhaug emphasised that this was the most successful election in the party's history, describing the result as "extraordinary". Although the right-wing bloc did not regain power, she positioned the Progress Party as the core leading force of the opposition, pledging to serve as the main policy alternative.[101] Listhaug also warned about the political direction of the next four years, arguing that under Labour leadership Norway would face a clear shift to the left, potentially creating difficulties for both citizens and businesses.[102] In addition, she stated that the party's future strategy will focus on achieving a breakthrough in the 2027 local elections, with the ultimate goal of competing for government power in the 2029 parliamentary election, signaling a long-term ambition to govern.[103]

After the election results were announced, Conservative Party leader Erna Solberg admitted that the outcome was a setback for the party, stating bluntly: "The result should have been better, but we did not achieve it."[104] Although Solberg did not immediately resign, she admitted that the party needed to review its campaign strategy, communication methods, and policy promotion in order to respond to voter concerns about the Conservatives' role. She stated that her resignation "will come at some point". Subsequently, several senior figures within the party expressed that they wanted a new leader.[105][106][107] On 12 September, Solberg announced that she would step down as party leader, stating that she would remain in charge until the next national congress.[108]

Socialist Left Party

[edit]

Socialist Left Party leader Kirsti Bergstø stated after the election that the party had become Norway's fourth largest party and the second largest force within the red-green bloc. She emphasised that the result prevented a right-wing government led by Listhaug and the Progress Party, and called on the red-green parties to take collective responsibility by placing "the needs of ordinary people" at the core of politics.[109] Bergstø also met with Prime Minister Støre after the election, during which the two held a constructive dialogue about possible directions for future red-green cooperation. She expressed gratitude to voters and volunteers, and reiterated that the Socialist Left Party would actively promote reducing inequality, a fair climate transition, and a dignified Norwegian foreign policy.[110]

Centre Party

[edit]

Centre Party leader Trygve Slagsvold Vedum made it clear after the election that he would not resign despite the party's reduced number of seats, stressing that he would continue to lead the party. Although the Centre Party emerged smaller in parliament, Vedum argued that it still held pivotal votes and could play the role of a "decisive minority" in the legislature.[111][112] Vedum stated that "we must make good use of the power we now have", demonstrating his determination to push forward policies related to rural areas, energy, and sovereignty.[113][114] After the election, he also met with Prime Minister Støre for talks on future cooperation.[115]

Red Party

[edit]

Red Party leader Marie Sneve Martinussen stressed after the election that the party's results symbolized "our continued writing of history". She noted that since entering parliament for the first time in the 2017 Norwegian parliamentary election and surpassing the threshold in 2021, the party has steadily grown and has now become "an important force for change rather than a fleeting phenomenon". Martinussen also made clear that the Red Party was willing to cooperate with other left-wing parties, directly naming the Labour Party, Socialist Left Party, Centre Party, and Green Party. She underlined the need to work together to reduce inequality, strengthen welfare, and safeguard democracy. In addition, she specifically called for Norway to "do more for Palestine".[116]

Martinussen criticised the right-wing campaign led by Progress Party leader Listhaug, declaring that the Red Party would work actively to counter that agenda. She emphasised that the party would not stand passively by but would take part in negotiations, combining principle with pragmatism to push for real social reforms. She urged more people to join the Red Party and social movements, stressing that "the election is only the beginning of a new phase".[117]

Green Party

[edit]

After the election, Green Party leader Arild Hermstad described the outcome as a "historic victory for the Green Party", successfully surpassing the threshold and winning seven seats in parliament, marking the best result in the party's history. He emphasized that the Greens would wield greater influence in the new parliament, prioritizing climate policy, social justice, and the issue of Palestine.[118]

Hermstad stated that the Green Party is calling for a gradual phaseout of the oil industry, to be completed no later than 2040, alongside an immediate halt to new oil and gas exploration. He pointed out that the Statfjord, Brage, and Draugen oil fields should be prioritized for closure.[119] While the Greens are willing to play a key supporting role in a left-wing government, he stressed that their core principles will not be compromised. Hermstad also highlighted that the party’s strong performance in urban areas such as Oslo demonstrates its growing influence among city voters.[120]

Liberal Party

[edit]

The Liberal Party failed to clear the 4% threshold for levelling seats, being reduced to just three MPs. Guri Melby and deputy leader Abid Raja blamed the result on Listhaug's candidacy for Prime Minister and her behavior during the campaign.[121]
