Norway's Labour Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg has admitted defeat in Monday's general election.
The
Conservatives and their allies have won a majority of the seats in parliament,
according to official projections with most votes counted.
Erna
Solberg, who heads the Conservative Party, is widely expected to form a
government with the anti-immigration Progress Party.
Mr
Stoltenberg said he would step down after presenting the budget next month.
It was
Norway's first general election since attacks by a far-right extremist killed
77 people at a Labour Party youth camp in 2011.
The
perpetrator of those attacks, Anders Behring Breivik, had previously been a
member of the Progress Party.
