In light of the significant discrepancies observed during the November 2025 parliamentary elections in Denmark, experts Adam Hvidt, Nils Mulvad, and Roger Buch have proposed three critical improvements for the electoral system. Following the closure of polling stations, it was discovered that the official election website displayed perplexing statistics, including voter turnout percentages exceeding 100% and incorrect comparisons with previous election results. Such inaccuracies raised concerns about the reliability of the electoral data presented to the public, necessitating urgent reform.

The experts highlighted that although the new voting system maintained security during the voting process, it fell short in ensuring accurate data reporting post-election. Numerous municipalities, including Ikast-Brande and Frederikshavn, experienced major reporting errors, leading to confusion regarding party performance and vote tallies. The Social Democrats, for instance, were reported to have gained 12.6 percentage points in Ikast-Brande, while in reality, they had lost 4.2 percentage points. These discrepancies illustrate a critical need for addressing flaws in the current electoral infrastructure.

To enhance the integrity and functionality of the electoral system, the experts emphasized the importance of implementing better data validation techniques, training for electoral officials, and increased transparency in the reporting process. Addressing these issues is vital not only for restoring public confidence in the electoral process but also for ensuring that future elections reflect the true will of the voters. With parliamentary elections on the horizon, the urgency for reform cannot be overstated.
