On September 9, Norway held a Parliamentary election. Eight parties won at least one seat, including the Green Party, which won its first seat with 2.8% of the national vote. See this wikipedia article about the election.
The eight parties which won at least one seat are: Labor 55, Copnservative 48, Progress 29, Christian Democratic 10, Center 10, Liberal 9, Socialist Left 7, Green 1. Thirteen other parties participated in the election but did not win any seats. Norway uses proportional representation. Thanks to Green Party News for this news.
How many P.R. regimes manage to survive with NO party having a majority of the seats ?

Stop the super-dangerous STONE AGE monarchy/oligarchy politics in the USA.
P.R. and nonpartisan App.V.
GO PROGRESS!
Kudos to the Norwegian Green Party! Now if only we could get one or two Greens elected here in America…
The Green Party elected a state legislator in Arkansas in 2012, and also another one in Arkansas in 2008.
