The 2025 Solrød Municipal election will be held on 18 November 2025, to elect the 19 members to sit in the regional council for the Solrød Municipal council, in the period of 2026 to 2029.[1]

Background

Following the 2021 election, Emil Blücher from Liberal Alliance became mayor for his first term, and the first mayor from the party.[2] The results from the 2021 election, were remarkable, as no party won 20% or more of the total votes.[3] The 2021 election also saw, the mayor position going from likely going to the Conservatives, then looking set for the Social Democrats, and ending with the Liberal Alliance.[4] In the 2021 Danish local elections, the Liberal Alliance won just 1.4% of the vote nationwide, and only won 9 seats, 3 of them being in the 2021 Solrød municipal election.[5]

Since 2021 the party has enjoyed improvement in both the 2022 Danish general election[6] and the 2024 European Parliament election.[7] Current opinion polls, also expect an improvement in the Next Danish general election, with an Epinion poll published 1 May 2025, suggesting they could get around 13.1% in a general election, significantly higher than 1.4%, making a hold of the mayoral position a real possibility.[8] Blücher is also set to run for a re-election.[9]

Electoral system

For elections to Danish municipalities, a number varying from 9 to 31 are chosen to be elected to the municipal council. The seats are then allocated using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation. Solrød Municipality had 19 seats in 2025.
