Danish election boosts Social Democrats in third year
Denmark's third general election in three years yields gains for Prime Minister Anker Joergensen's Social Democrats with 37.1 percent of votes and 12 more Folketing seats, totaling 103 seats. Coalition options remain unlikely as allies falter and governance shifts toward a short-term plan to reemploy 20,000 of 175,000 jobless, needing about 130 million dollars and possible sales tax rise.
