Since 2014, Hans Bertelsen from Venstre had been mayor of Morsø Municipality. In the last election, Venstre had won an absolute majority of seats.[1]
In this election Hans Bertelsen would stand again. He would win re-election, after it was clear that Venstre would win 11 seats, and hold their absolute majority.[2] The day following election night, a constitution was announced, that would give Hans Bertelsen a third term as mayor.[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. Morsø Municipality had 21 seats in 2021
Unlike in Danish General Elections, in elections to municipal councils, electoral alliances are allowed.
