Today the Norwegian Christian Democratic Party (krf) is having an extraordinary national convention.
They are going to vote on whether or not they are going to join the current government (blue), stay in oporition (light red and light blue) or switch side and go to the left and create a government with the Labour Party (red).

They are goign to vote over all three alternatives in secret voting. The two alternatives with most votes will go on to second voting round.

The result from this vote can result in the current Conservative government have to step down and we will get a new leftist government.

Norway has been taking far too few immigrants during these last few years. I am sure the Christian Democrats will rectify this

Sadly the hard left elements in the Christian Democratic Party is sadly for open borders. But there is good elements too in the party. There is a big element of the members that sees the eradication and destruction of the Christian culture and the harm it brings to the country. So there is both good and bad in the party.

If the Christian Democratic Party chooses to form a government with the Labor party it will be the first time since World War II that the Christian Democratic Party supports or joins a leftist government.

The first round is over.
The Christian Democratic Party have rejected to be in opposition. Now they will vote on who they are going to form a government with.
If they choose to join the current conservative government they will become a part of a majority government.
If they choose to form a government with the Labor party they will join a minority party and have to get support form the far left in the parliament to get a majority.

I believe it is. They will first have to negotiate a platform and all, but I guess it will go through without problems. The Christian Democratic Party is already a "supporting opposition party" (probably bad wording), so mainly the only thing that will change is that they will sit in government and it will be able to make budgets and policy without the noise and reeing from the left changing it. All the decisions the government now makes no longer has to be diluted to get a majority vote in parliament because now they will automatically have a majority when they put forward policy.
The Christian Democratic Party will make some changes to the policies, but I think it will mainly be to further Christianity and some environmental policies. The foreign aid is already set because most of the parties already have agreed that we should spend 1% of the budget on it each year for some arbitrary reason, so it will not change. Perhaps a few more immigrants, but I think it will be immigrants from the "UN contingent", and not free importation. Also many Syrians that go through the UN system declines to go to Norway when the learn that they can't throw gays off the roofs (basically when they learn about our culture they say no thanks).

tl;dr; I think the biggest change is that the left now will have to reeeee without it having an effect

This is why I like Scandinavia even if Sweden is so far down the gutter that is hard to even touch

I wanted to come with a little update on how it goes with the negotiations for the platform for the new majority government.

As we know the Christian Democratic Party voted to form a majority government with the current sitting minority government cosisting of the Conservative Party, the Progress Party and the Liberal Party. This was against the wishes of the current leader of the Christian Democratic Party.

Sadly the leader and others in the Christian Democratic Party that wanted to move to the left-wing is putting up roadblocks on the way. In parliament they have voted down and forced their will by forming alliances with the left-wing parties. This is going on at the same time as they are doing negotiantions on the policies for the new majority government that they voted to join.

The leader of the Christian Democratic Party said he would step down if he lost the vote. But after he lost it changed a bit, he then said he would step down once the new government was formed, and if the negotiations didn't pan out he would stay on as leader.

So all in all it looks like the leader and others in the Christian Democratic Party are trying to make the negotiations fail. They are acting like they won the vote and are negotiating to form a government with the left.

You think this will lead to a schism in the party?

They were split about 50/50 on the vote, so I would not rule it out. But I think they will hold together. The Christian Democratic Party only got a little over 4% of the votes in last election, and will probably get less next one. So a split would kill the party, but then again this whole thing probably killed it already as the voters that wanted to go far left will vote for the Labor party or further left instead of the Christian Democratic Party next election. I think that after next election in 2021 the Christian Democratic Party will end up with only one representative in the parliament and become an irrelevant party.
