The Christian Democratic Party (KrF) in Norway is grappling with a leadership crisis following the resignation of its leader, Olaug Bollestad, in August.

Currently, the party is led by acting leader Dag-Inge Ulstein, as both he and the second deputy leader, Ida Lindtveit Røse, are on medical leave.

The party plans to elect a new leader at an extraordinary national meeting in January.

However, the leadership vacuum has left the party in a state of uncertainty, with no clear candidates stepping forward to take on the role.

Jørgen Kristiansen and Jorunn Gleditsch Lossius from Agder have expressed openness to leadership roles, but the decision remains pending.

The situation is critical as the party faces strategic challenges ahead of the upcoming parliamentary elections.
