Next Norway Prime Minister Odds Favor Store to Replace Solberg

Norwegians will be heading to the polls in September 2021 to elect their 169 members of parliament. Given the multi-party nature of Norwegian politics, the election will decide who will be the next head of government. According to the next Norway Prime Minister odds, there will likely be a change. In other words, the incumbent Solberg will perhaps lose to the closest challenger Jonas Store. A new head of government and chief executive of Norway will be named following the upcoming parliamentary election in September. Since the system is a multi-party one, the Prime Minister is the leader of the majority party or the senior partner in a governing coalition. The incumbent PM of Norway is Erna Solberg of the Conservative Party, but will she retain the office? As next Norway Prime Minister odds show, Solberg’s reign looks set to come to an end, as her party has been losing popularity. Should the election bring out a new Prime Minister, it will likely be Jonas Store, according to online sportsbooks in Norway.

Solberg and Conservatives are losing popularity

The Conservative Party leader Erna Solberg is keen to win a third term, with her next Norway Prime Minister odds standing at 7.5, as per 22BET Sportsbook. While she has been highly popular and her party was the largest for years, public opinion has been changing. However, it is unclear why exactly that is the situation. Most online sportsbook news sites in Norway speculate Solberg’s 60th birthday celebration scandal might be one of the reasons. Another reason may be that Solberg and her party are suffering from voter weariness. What is more, her current and former partners, the Liberals, Christian Democrats, and Progress Party are all on the decline. Therefore, it seems hard that she will be able to form a government.

Store has been gaining strength in the polls

Should Erna Solberg lose, Jonas Gahr Store of Labors will likely replace her with 1.25 odds. One of the reasons why Store is the closest challenger is his party that is likely destined to reclaim its traditional spot as the largest party, according to recent polls. This is also what the 2021 Norwegian general election odds have been showing. The other reason is that  Store’s popularity has climbed from 27 to 34 early this year, as per Norstat. Whereas his main opponent the incumbent PM Solberg slipped from 58 percent to 47. So, if you wish to bet on politics in Norway, you may probably choose Store as a safe bet.

Next Norway Prime Minister odds suggest Vedum as a second favorite

The leader of the left-leaning Center Party Trygve Slagsvold Vedum which is expected to come third in polls has been a parliamentarian since 2005. He also has some experience in government, as he briefly served as minister of agriculture and food in 2012 and 2013. Given that Labor and the Center will likely gain seats in the upcoming election, the leader of one of the two parties will be the next PM. Vedum is less likely to become the PM over Store. However, he remains a strong challenger with 5.5 odds. Few other candidates might get into the race but have much less chance.
