In 2018, following the 2017 Læsø Municipal election, Danish People's Party and the Social Democrats (Denmark) reached an agreement for a constitution that would see Karsten Nielsen, from Danish People's Party become the first mayor in a Danish municipality, in the party's history.[1] On June 4, 2021, Karsten Nielsen announced he would switch his party affiliation to centre-right Venstre.[2] Later on 9 October 2021, he announced he would not stand to be re-elected for mayor. Instead deputy mayor, Tobias Birch, would be the main candidate of Venstre.[3]
