Municipal elections
24. september 2025
What are the Local Elections?
On the 18th of November 2025, municipal and regional elections are held across Denmark.
- Municipal elections decide who runs your local services — like schools, kindergartens, elderly care, roads and culture.
- Regional elections decide healthcare, including hospitals and mental health.
If you live in Denmark and meet certain conditions, you might have the right to vote – even without Danish citizenship.
Are you eligible to vote?
In Denmark, you can vote in the local (municipal) and regional elections if you:
- Are 18 years or older
- Have a permanent address in Denmark
- And meet one of these conditions:
- You are a citizen of an EU country
- You are a citizen of Iceland or Norway
- You have lived in Denmark for at least 4 consecutive years
Why should you vote for me?

I know Frederiksberg must stay open, international, and welcoming.
???? Having lived as an expat in Leuven, Belgium, I know how important it is that international students and professionals feel included. Take CBS as an example — some parties even disagree that posters should be in English. But if we want the best students, the best workers, and the best companies, we must stay inclusive and open to the world.
With a professional background as an auditor and ESG leader, I know how to combine financial responsibility with sustainable solutions — and bring that mindset into local politics.
- I will fight for strong schools and freedom of choice for families.
- I will make Frederiksberg a better place for local businesses, culture, and outdoor life.
- I will work for sustainable solutions that balance green ambitions with everyday life.
Your vote helps me stand guard for a Frederiksberg with freedom, opportunities, and community.
How to vote:
In Denmark, voting is simple and safe — and every vote counts. Here is how the process works:
Before the election
A few weeks before the election, you will receive your polling card (valgkort) in the mail. This card tells you where and when to vote. Your designated polling station will be close to your home.
You can also find information about the election on your municipality's website or at lifeindenmark.dk.
On election day
On election day, bring your polling card and a valid ID (like your health card or residence permit) to the polling station.
There, you will receive a ballot paper and go to a private booth to mark your vote. When you're done, you fold the paper and place it in the ballot box.
You can vote for a party or a specific candidate within a party. Hopefully you will vote for me, Casper Pedersen from the party called Venstre, Danmark Liberale Parti.
✉️ Voting in advance (postal voting)
If you can't vote on election day, you can vote in advance. This is called postal voting (brevstemme).
You can cast your postal vote at your municipality’s citizen service centre (borgerservice), often starting three weeks before the election. You don’t need to bring your polling card — just valid ID.
