In an opinion poll Sentio has conducted for Hamar Arbeiderblad, the Center Party gets 27.9 percent support, while the Labor Party gets 26.7 percent.
He’s been gossiping at Hedmark Labor long before this poll came through.
12 of the 21 home teams have indicated that they will replace Hamar’s Anette Trettebergstuen with Tynset’s Nils Kristen Sandtrøen in first place for next autumn’s parliamentary elections.
– We experience Nils Kristen Sandtrøen as most visible on the issues that concern us. It’s a bit more local and a bit more district-oriented, says Tolga Ap deputy leader Morten Nyhus.
Anette Trettebergstuen has sat at the Storting for Hedmark Labor for four terms. She is currently the leader of the Labor Party women’s network and sits on the Labor Party central board.

But the battle is not over. This morning, the Hedmark Labor Party nominating committee presented a recommendation that the majority (6) will have Trettebergstuen at the head and the minority (3) will have Sandtrøen at the head.
Trettebergstuen is clear that he wants first place.
– It motivates me to work for Hedmark and the interior and fight for a better district policy, against centralization and to get a new government. And I want to do it from the first place if my party wants, says Anette Trettebergstuen.
She believes that she and Nils Kristen Sandtrøen have had a good collaboration in this period. That he is perceived as more local than she, she explains, saying that she has had a better time to travel.
– I had children just before the last electoral campaign and I am a single mother. I also have several national posts in the Labor Party, which means I have to travel across the country, he says.
Nehru Sand: – Sensational
NRK political commentator Lars Nehru Sand thinks it will be sensational if Anette Trettebergstuen doesn’t get first place in Hedmark.

– Outside of Hedmark, it will probably attract attention. She is seen as a natural part of the Labor Party parliamentary group, and not least a possible minister if there is a change of government, says Nehru Sand.
He believes that it is disturbing for the Hedmark Labor Party that it is not the largest party in a stronghold like Hedmark.
Yesterday, NRK reported that another Labor stronghold, Trøndelag, is in free fall.
But Nehru Sand believes that the Hedmark Labor Party still has a good chance of becoming the biggest and getting two candidates in the Storting, as they have done today.
District fight
Before the 2017 parliamentary elections, Anette Trettebergstuen was unanimously nominated as the first candidate and Sandtrøen as the second candidate.
Before today’s nomination meeting, it was the local teams in Østerdalen and south of Hedmark that switched venues.
But also the Stange Labor Party prefers to reject Trettebergstuen.
– We are probably a bit divided, but in the meeting we had in June, the attitude was probably to put Nils Kristen Sandtrøen on top, says Grethe Mikaelsen. Trettebergstuen works on many important political issues, but it is probably the profile of the Sandtrøen district that has been decisive in Stange.
Morten Nyhus in Tolga Ap doesn’t have a bad thing to say about Trettebergstuen either, but he still thinks Sandtrøen is the right person now.
– Personally, I think Nils Kristen Sandtrøen has the potential for much more important tasks in the game. It has what it takes, Nyhus says.
Final nomination
Municipal parties will now provide comments on the nominating committee’s recommendation by October 10.
By October 25, the nominating committee will present its final proposal. The nomination meeting is November 28.
