Denmark’s left-wing bloc leads election but lacks majority, exit polls show

-

COPENHAGEN, March ‌24 (Reuters) - Denmark's left-wing parties, ​including Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen's Social Democrats, ⁠are leading over the right-wing bloc in Tuesday's election for ​parliament, but neither group is expected ‌to win a majority of seats, two exit polls showed.

A poll from broadcaster ⁠DR and Epinion ⁠gave the left-wing bloc 83 seats against 79 for the right in the 179-seat assembly, while ‌a TV2 and Megafon survey predicted ⁠86 seats for the ‌left and 75 ​for the right.

This could give Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen's non-aligned ‌centrist Moderates the power ​to decide ⁠which bloc will form a ‌government, or even ⁠leave the role of tiebreaker to the four candidates elected from ​Greenland and ‌the Faroe Islands.
