There is a statistical uncertainty of 2.8 percentage points for the party in the poll.
In the most recent election on 5 June 2019, the Social Democrats received 25.9 percent of the vote, but the party has been very high in the Voxmeter polls during the corona crisis. Sometimes even over 35 percent.
In the poll on November 22 last year, 29.2 percent answered that they would vote for the Social Democrats.
It was during a period when the party lost support after the mink scandal, the case of the order to kill all mink in Denmark due to fear of spreading infection with mutated coronavirus.
The case ended up costing the state a bill of up to 19 billion kroner in compensation for mink breeders.
The case also cost the then Minister of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries Mogens Jensen (S) the post.
In the past month, the Social Democrats have also lost voter support at Voxmeter.
The government recently had to shelve plans to establish an exit center on Langeland for rejected criminal asylum seekers, as a majority in the Folketing was against the location.
Likewise, against its own wishes, the government had to agree to repatriate children and mothers with Danish citizenship from prison camps in Syria. The mothers had traveled to Syria and had stayed with the Islamic State caliphate.
Most recently, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen (S) has had to regret that seven women have appeared in Berlingske with reports that they have felt offended by an employee of the Social Democrats, who has now left her position.
In Sunday’s poll from Voxmeter, the Conservatives and the Liberals are very close with 13.9 and 13.6 percent of the vote, respectively.
New Citizens’ and Danish People’s Party are measured to be equal, as both parties have received 6.4 percent of the vote.
It is the first time in about five months that the Danish People’s Party is on a par with Nye Borgerlige in a Voxmeter poll.
Here, too, it is part of the picture that there is a statistical uncertainty.
It is also worth noting that as many as 3.0 per cent of the respondents in the survey answered “other”, ie that they would vote for one of the non-eligible parties.
In the poll, the red bloc stands to get 96 seats, while the parties in the blue bloc stand for 79 seats, which is the same distribution of seats as in the June 2019 election.
However, this means that for both blocks there is a statistical uncertainty of 3.0 percentage points.
The Voxmeter survey was conducted in the period 7 June to 12 June among 1030 representatively selected persons over 18 years of age.
