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.
