Landsting results needed[edit]

I presume this table refers to the Folketing elections. Do we have the similar results for the other House, Landstinget as well? Valentinian ^{(talk) / (contribs)} 22:08, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this table refers to the Folketing elections. And it definitely was a mistake not to write that in the article. Sorry.

Unfortunately, I don't results for the Landsting at hand, but your question has made me realise that Elections in Denmark and either the titles of these articles or the succession boxes needs fixing: The elections for the two houses weren't on the same date (at least not always). (Landsting elections: ..., 21 Sept 1898, 19 Sept 1902, 21 Sept 1906, 20 Sept 1910, ...; Folketing elections: ..., 5 Apr 1898, 3 Apr 1901, 16 June 1903, 20 May 1910, ...) The best solution I can come up, is to use a different naming system for the elections from the bicameral time period, using for example Danish Folketing election, 1901 and Danish Landsting election, 1902. It isn't pretty to switch naming systems for the Folketing elections in 1953, so if you have a better idea, please let me know. Hemmingsen 19:43, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't be so hard on yourself. You are hardly the first Dane who momentarily forgot about the Landsting :) I just noticed since I'm currently examining material from "Rigsdagstidenden" IRL. Your suggestion for a naming system sounds fine to me. May I ask where you found your figures for the Folketing elections and the list of election dates? In any case, I much prefer simply to use the terms "Folketing" and "Landsting" rather than Lower and Upper House since the Constitution AFAIK considered the two houses to be on a level footing with each other.

Unfortunately I can't really find a good on-line list of election dates but I've compiled this list from www.fredsakademiet.dk: (the date format is MM/DD/YYYY)

Folketing: 12/24/1849 , 08/04/1852, 02/26/1853 , 05/27/1853, 12/01/1854 , 06/14/1855 , 06/14/1858 , 06/14/1861 , 06/04/1866 , 10/12/1866 , 09/22/1869 , 09/20/1872 , 11/14/1873 , 04/25/1876 , 01/03/1879 , 05/24/1881 , 07/26/1881 , 06/25/1884 , 01/28/1887 , 01/21/1890 , 04/20/1892 , (12/24/1894 ??: Lov om 'midlertidig omfordeling af folketingsvalgkredsene' ?) , 04/09/1895 , 04/05/1898 , 04/03/1901 , 06/16/1903 , 09/29/1906 , 10/28/1909 , 05/07/1910 , 05/20/1913 (followed by a second election ??) , 05/07/1915 , 04/22/1918 , 04/26/1920 , 07/06/1920 , 04/11/1924 , 12/02/1926 , 04/24/1929 , 11/16/1932 , 10/22/1935 , 04/03/1939 , 03/23/1943 , 10/30/1945 , 10/28/1947 , 09/05/1950 , 04/21/1953

Landsting: 12/29/1849 , 06/03/1853 , 06/20/1855, 06/20/1859 , 06/23/1866 , 10/18/1866 , 10/01/1870 , 10/01/1874 , 10/01/1878, 09/30/1882 , 10/01/1886 , 09/30/1890 , 09/19/1894 , [an entry seems to be missing], 04/19/1902 , 09/21/1906 , 09/20/1910 , 05/20/1913, 07/10/1914 , 05/21/1915 , 05/11/1918 , 10/01/1920 , 08/10/1920 , 09/23/1924 , 09/13/1932 , 09/22/1936 , 04/14/1939 , 03/23/1943 , 04/11/1947 , 04/10/1951 , 04/28/1953 (last Landsting election. The new Constitution ratified on 05/06/1953). As you've already noticed, this list doesn't correspond with some of the dates you mention. I don't know if Rigsdagen ever published a list of previous elections? It would have been handy. Valentinian ^{(talk) / (contribs)} 22:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid, I've forgotten what my source for the election results was - I remember it as being [1], but that can't be right, as that page doesn't list the number of votes. I have however found a new source - Bang & Elberling: Rigsdagsvalgene 1895-1910 - with slightly different vote counts (I intend to update the data along with the article titles tonight). The election dates is a bit easier: For the Folketing elections I used the same link as the one you posted on Talk:Elections in Denmark (direct link: [2]) and for the Landsting elections I have been browsing through different volumes of Aarbog for Rigsdagssamlingen. Unfortunately, the library wouldn't let me take them home, so I don't have a complete list, but these are the ones I've got:

..., 21 Sept 1898, 19 Sept 1902, 21 Sept 1906, 20 Sept 1910, 10 July 1914, 21 May 1915, 11 May 1918, 1 Oct 1920, 23 Sept 1924, 15 Aug 1928, 21 Sept 1928, 13 Sept 1932, 14 Aug 1936, 22 Sept 1936, 14 April 1939, 27 April 1939, ...

Since the majority of these elections only were in 1, 3 or 4 of 7 constituencies (with a maximum of 8 years between elections in the same constituency), and sometimes no more than one seat was up for election, it is quite possible that I missed a date or two (such as 05/20/1913 and 10/01/1920). But there are still some problems left, so I intend to go back to the library and double-check my Landsting election dates before I dare type a list in at Elections in Denmark. Hemmingsen 17:33, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't been able to find one complete list of Landsting elections, but I've compiled something from a handful of sources. I haven't found specific dates for every election year, but I do believe I have all the election years:
