Denmark's Social Democrats win most votes but fail to secure majority in general election

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen's Social Democrats won the most votes in Denmark's general election with around 21% but suffered their worst result in over a century, losing seats and failing to secure a parliamentary majority. Neither the left-wing 'red bloc' nor right-wing 'blue bloc' achieved the 90 seats needed for majority control of the 179-seat parliament. The centrist Moderates party led by Lars Løkke Rasmussen now holds the kingmaker position in coalition negotiations.
