right-wing , nationalisticpolitical party inNorway . The party is led byVidar Kleppe , a former member of parliament for the Progress Party. The main issues for the party areanti-immigration , law and order and reduction oftaxes . The party's values are based onChristianity and Norwegian heritage.The party has no representation in the
Storting , the Norwegian legislature, though it has eight members of seven municipal councils and one representation in a county council (Vest-Agder), as of the 2003 elections.The party stepped up its activity with the aim of gaining a foothold in the
Storting at the elections ofSeptember 12 ,2005 . Amongst its more well-known candidates for the election wereGry Jannicke Jarlum , who briefly achieved fame in Norway in the early 1980s as a pop singer (and now goes by the name of J-Diva), andOle Klemetsen , who gained some success in theLight heavyweight division ofboxing . Despite running a high profile campaign, Demokratene failed to make any breakthrough in the 2005 parliamentary election, capturing a hugely disappointing 2,706 votes (a share of 0.1%). With the main right wing vote going to the Progress Party, Demokratene were left without a support base and so failed to win any representation.References
