Birgir Örn Guðjónsson, a candidate for the Viðreisn party in Kópavogur, shared his disappointment after failing to secure an election win. Despite this setback, he is contemplating whether to accept a position on the party's list should it be offered to him. Birgir reflects on his newness in the political game, suggesting that he lacked the support and machinery that established candidates may have.

In contrast, Ísak Leon Júlíusson, another candidate who also did not get elected, is quite confident about potentially receiving an offer for a party position. He expresses his feelings of disappointment but remains hopeful about his political future. His certainty contrasts with Birgir's indecision, highlighting different attitudes towards the electoral outcome amongst the candidates.

The election results saw María Ellen Steingrímsdóttir elected as the leader of Viðreisn in Kópavogur, joined by Pétur Björgin Sverrisson and Arnar Grétarsson as the second and third candidates respectively. Only the top three positions were voted on, while the remaining candidates will be arranged on the party’s list. The contrasting reactions of Birgir and Ísak reflect the challenges and aspirations present within Iceland's current political landscape.
