The 2018 Greenlandic General Election

The 2018 Greenlandic General Election marked a significant turning point in the political landscape of Greenland. Following a series of elections, the dominance of the Forward Party and the Inuit Community Party began to wane, reflecting a shift in voter sentiment. This snap election was characterized by a growing desire for change among the electorate, as evidenced by the results that indicated a decline in support for the traditional parties that had previously held sway over Greenlandic politics. The election was influenced by various factors, including the public's response to issues surrounding self-governance and autonomy, which had been a focal point since the 2008 referendum that favored increased self-governance with a remarkable 76.22% approval. As the political dynamics continue to evolve, the outcomes of the 2018 election suggest a potential reconfiguration of party alliances and voter priorities in the years to come. The waning influence of established parties may pave the way for new political movements and a more diverse representation in the Greenlandic parliament, reflecting the changing aspirations of its citizens. #Mooflife #MomentOfLife #GreenlandicGeneralElection #2018Election #ForwardParty #InuitCommunityParty #Self-governance
