According to the latest updated results and projections as of the evening of 24 March, Dansk Folkeparti (DF) is receiving approximately 9.1 per cent support and 16 seats in the Folketing.

Compared with the previous election in 2022, they increase from 2.6 to 9.1 per cent, an advance of 6.5 percentage points – or 250 per cent. The number of seats increases from five to 16, an increase of eleven.

National conservative and EU-sceptic

This is the best result in many years for the national conservative and EU-sceptic party, and a clear resurgence under the leadership of Morten Messerschmidt. DF is performing particularly strongly in Sjælland, where the party in several places becomes the second largest.

The party appears set to become the fifth largest in the Folketing, larger than, inter alia, Moderaterne and Konservative in several projections.

The election has not been finally counted everywhere, but the trend is clear: Dansk Folkeparti has made a solid advance and, after some weak years, returns as a significant actor in Danish politics.
