What place is Nørrebro ? The Left gets 79% there (+5).

Nørrebro is also known for its poly-cultural society, mostly from Middle-Eastern background. The dynamic, multiethnic main street Nørrebrogade runs through the area, with a multitude of shops and restaurants. One of the main points of interest in the area is historic Assistens Cemetery (Assistens Kirkegård), final resting place of Søren Kierkegaard, Niels Bohr and H.C. Andersen.

Nørrebro is a multiethnic society, and is inhabited by people from all parts of the world. The largest minority groups of people living in Nørrebro are Arabs,Turks, Pakistanis, Bosnians, Somalians, Albanians and many more.

...

OK, that explains a lot.

Thank you for the awesome maps, anyways.

And still, a very important and very bright spot : an epic turnout. As much as I'm not fond of the way Danish people voted, at least they did vote massively and that's what matters most.

Very true. Denmark is neiter a dictatorship, nor does it have mandatory voting, the election takes place on a weekday when most people have to work and the election campaign lasted only 3 weeks, unless the 2 years in the US or 2-3 months in Austria. Considering this, 88% turnout is really outstanding.
