I am taken aback a little on how I would post the envelope, but I got help very quickly, ” says Carl Lindholm.
the 20-year-old is førstegangsvelger in this year’s municipal elections and have just forhåndsstemt.
Here is a quick review so that you can get an equally painless experience as Carl.
1) Remember credentials
– The most important thing is that you remember to bring valid identification, ” says Lise Merkesdal, senior advisor in the Valgdirektoratet.
Valgmedarbeiderne must verify that you are the person you claim to be, in order to prevent electoral fraud.
This rule applies to absolutely everyone.
When Jonas Gahr Støre and his wife, Marit Slagsvold should vote during the election in 2017, she was not allowed to vote because she had forgotten to bring valid identification.
Although statsministerkandidaten and dozens of journalists present could confirm the identity, had to Slagsvold go home and retrieve the credentials before she is allowed to vote.
Examples of accepted photo identification are passport, driving licence and credit card with photo.

2) Fill out the ballot
keep in Mind that there are two options to take a position on in the year and thus two ballots.
Take a ballot for the party you want to support in the municipal elections and one for the party you will support in the county council election / bydelsutvalget if you are resident in Oslo.
If you have a person to cheer a little bit extra on, then you can give a personstemme to this candidate.
– It is important to be aware that there are different rules at the municipal, county council or city council general election, says Merkesdal.
Here are the different rules:
In a local elections, one can not swipe the candidates or renummerere. At the county council elections, one can not swipe, renummerere or give slengerstemmer*. At the general election, one can not give personstemmer or slengerstemmer*.
* A slengerstemme is when you bring up the candidates from a different party or list that you want to give a personstemme.

– It is not possible to undo once one has released the ballot in the urn, says Merkesdal.
It is secret options in Norway, so no one is allowed to open the urn before the votes will be counted up.
– It’s anonymous, so one can not; however, track back to which ballot is yours, ” says Merkesdal.
4) Fold the right
Fold together the ballot with partinavnet and the field of stamping out. Do not place anything over to hide the contents.
