From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
In Norway, elections are held every second year, changing between elections for the Parliament and local elections both of which are held on a 4-yearly basis.
Suffrage is universal from the year a person turns 18 years old, even if the person turns 18 later in the year the election is held. Only Norwegian citizens can vote in the Parliamentary elections, but foreign workers that have lived in Norway for three years continuously can vote in the local elections.
Women's suffrage was adopted in 1913.
