The other kingmakers

-

Greenland and Faroe Islands, each has two mandates in the Danish Parliament. The four mandates can sometimes make the difference between the red and blue camps and decide the prime minister. 

  • In Greenland, the two mandates are usually won by Siumut (sister party of Socialdemokratiet) and Inuit Ataqatigiit (a self-declared red party) – so the two mandates go towards Mette Frederiksen. 
  • In the Faroe Islands, the two mandates are usually won by Javnaðarflokkurin (sister party of Socialdemokratiet) and Sambandspartiet (sister party of Venstre) – so one mandate for Mette Frederiksen and one for Jakob Ellemann-Jensen.
