The table sto_representant_ov provides a continuous overview of the Storting representatives, both the elected and deputy representatives, in the 9 extraordinary Stortings.
The first extraordinary Storting was elected separately. The subsequent eight came together when the departed Storting was reconvened.
The variables are as follows:
Main index. Continuous internal identifier from the table i_politikere. Is mandatory and unique. Example: Tina Bru is 31610.
The Storting's consecutive numbering from 1 to 9 of the extraordinary Stortings. See i_storting_ov for details on the individual extraordinary stortings.
Indicates the representative's electoral district according to the existing numbering in Polsys, as explained in i_valgdistriktskoder. Example: 16013 indicates 3rd district, Baklandet, valid period 56-68.
Continuous code indicating which political party the representative belongs to. The codes are given in the table i_parti. If the party affiliation changes during the period, we get a new entry in the table. We make a strict distinction between party and election lists so that, for example, the representatives from the Socialist Election Association are listed under their respective parties before the majority of them were gathered in the Socialist Left Party. Example: 31 is Venstre.
The mandate number in the constituency for an elected representative. Is NULL for deputies.
Specifies the order of the electoral list for deputy representatives. Is NULL for elected representatives.
Originally, both representatives and deputy representatives were elected by voters in personal elections, and supnr is then arranged the same as repnr, usually with the same number of people on the list. In 1906 direct elections were introduced, and the electoral districts became divided into single-person wards with one representative and one deputy representative from each ward, both with mandate number 1. In 1921 the electoral districts were united again, and we got proportional representation between the different electoral lists. The deputy representatives are then numbered separately within each electoral list.
Start date of this entry. Applies to the period when the person has been elected as a representative or deputy, not just the time the person has actually met at the Storting. In most cases, the date will be equal to the start of the parliamentary term; the only known discrepancy concerns the representative from Fredrikshald, who was suspended in the first month of the first extraordinary Storting.
End date for this entry. Applies to the period when the person has been elected as a representative or deputy, not just the time the person has actually met at the Storting. In most cases, the date will be equal to the end of the parliamentary term; deviations are usually due to a change in party affiliation or death.
