Background

In the 2021 election, Red–Green Alliance became the largest party. However, it was Jacob Trøst from the Conservatives, who became mayor. [2]

Former mayor, and latest mayoral candidate for the Social Democrats, Thomas Thors announced a few days following the 2021 election that he would stop in politics. [3]

Electoral system

For elections to Danish municipalities, a number varying from 9 to 31 are chosen to be elected to the municipal council.

The seats are then allocated using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation.

Unlike in Danish General Elections, in elections to city councils, electoral alliances are allowed.
