Since its creation in the 2007 municipal reform, Hjørring had only had mayors from the Social Democrats. However the Social Democrats ended up losing 5 seats. This might have been a consequence of the 2020 Danish mink cull, and Hjørring being a municipality with a high number of mink farming.[1] Only Danish Social Liberal Party from the traditional red bloc in Denmark, gained a seat, and the bloc had only won 13 of the 16 seats needed for a majority. Centre-right Venstre and Conservatives, both gained 2 and 4 seats respectively, and had a majority of seats together. On 24 November 2021, a constitution between Danish Social Liberal Party, Conservatives and Venstre was agreed upon, which saw Søren Smalbro from Venstre become mayor, with Per Møller from Conservatives, becoming deputy mayor. [2]
For elections to Danish municipalities, a number varying from 9 to 31 are chosen to be elected to the municipal council. The seats are then allocated using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation.Hjørring Municipality had 31 seats in 2021
Unlike in Danish General Elections, in elections to municipal councils, electoral alliances are allowed.
