Exit polls in Denmark show the Red bloc is set to win the election after polling stations closed at 8 pm.
According to the CEST, Ritzau survey turnout was up on last time with 74.6% people estimated to have turned out to vote compared with 70.3% in 2015.
POLITICO reports that Denmark’s Social Democrats are in pole position to form a new government after Wednesday’s election, according to an exit poll, suggesting the party’s platform of higher taxes, increased public spending and a harder line on immigration resonated with voters.
The exit poll by public broadcaster Danmarks Radio showed the Social Democrats on 25.3 percent support, which would earn them 45 of the 179 seats in parliament. This puts them ahead of the Liberal Party of current Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, which the exit poll showed won 20.9 percent of the vote, or 37 seats.
