By an internal vote in the ruling party, the Left, between the party’s EU candidates, Søren Gade suffered a sensational defeat.
The former defence minister could not even be number two on the party’s internal opstillingsliste EU candidates.
instead, it was number two on the list Linea Søgaard-Lidell, while Søren Gade was number four in the vote on the Liberal party the UNION movement.
Before the meeting, it was already clear that the number one on the list was Morten Løkkegaard.
By the internal vote was Søren Gade also beaten by the candidate Asger Christensen. Lars Løkke Rasmussen’s son, Bergur Løkke Rasmussen ended up as number five on the Liberal party’s EUROPEAN list.
– of course It is hard. I went after the to be number two, but now it is, thank god, not here, I should be elected to the European Parliament. So so it difficult. It is the electorate who decides 26. may, says Søren Gade.
