He is the mayoral candidate for Samarbeidslista, one of three lists in Trøndelag municipality. The cooperation list ended with 60 percent support. Thus, it is absolutely certain that it is Reitan who gets the mayor’s job. – First of all, it is an incredibly large declaration of confidence from the voters in Røyrvik. I was incredibly excited when, in December, I announced that I was a mayoral candidate, and how that would affect the votes. But the way it looks now, it’s going very well, and I’m incredibly proud of that, says Røyrvik. – Prepared for the task There were only two other parties that submitted a list in Røyrvik; The Labor Party and Røyrvik district list. Ap goes back 23.4 percentage points compared to the 2019 election, and ends up at 14.1 percent. Røyrvik Bygdeliste is the second largest party and receives 25.9 percent of the vote. – I have a good team with me from my own party and from other parties. Now I don’t know who will come in, but good lists have been drawn up in Røyrvik this year, so I will bring a good municipal council into the job that will be done over the next four years, he says.
