Norges offisielle statistikk <strong>Fylkestingsvalget</strong> <strong>1995</strong><br />

As usual, the Christian Democrats were most interested<br />

in morals and religion, while Centre Party voters had a<br />

tendency to mention regional policy, communications<br />

and the EU issue.<br />

The low voter turnout in <strong>1995</strong> was clearly reflected by<br />

the sample survey panel. The data showed that the<br />

turnout was roughly equal for men and women. On the<br />

other hand, there were significant variations by age.<br />

Although all age groups showed a considerable decline<br />

in voter turnout, the percentage of stay-at-homers was<br />

greatest for the under-30 group. Voter turnout was<br />

only 30 per cent among those under the age of 23. In<br />

the youngest age groups, voter turnout was lower for<br />

men than for women. However, the tendency was the<br />

opposite for voters over the age of 60, where men<br />

showed a distinctly stronger proclivity for taking part<br />

in the election.<br />
