If you are a European Union citizen living in Denmark, you have the right to either vote for Danish candidates or for candidates from your native country. However, to vote for candidates from your native country, you need to either travel there or hope that your embassy organizes a voting section. In that direction, I will use this space to present relevant information to help you make a decision.
- The leadership of Konservative (Conservatives) proposed a new leading candidate (spidskandidat) called Niels Flemming Hansen. The leading candidate occupies the first position on the list of candidates. The members will decide on 23-24 September at the party congress if they will approve the leadership proposal.
- There is drama around the current conservative member of the European Parliament, Pernille Weiss. The leadership of the party asked her to resign after it was revealed that she was bullying her employees. However, contrary to the leadership decision, two local party organizations decided to nominate Pernille to stand as a candidate again. Clearly, the party congress in September will be interesting to watch.
