**Background:** This is the outcome of collecting data from a vote matching tool created by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation. In this tool, 59 separate claims were made, and each parties‘ response were put into one of four categories: „Strongly disagree“, „Somewhat disagree“, „Somewhat agree“ and „Strongly agree“. In the diagrams in this post, the responses were substituted with scores of 1,2, 4 and 5 respectively – as such adding an extra divide between agree/disagree.
The parties whose responses were collected, on a subjective rank from „most right-wing“ to „most left-wing“:
* FRP, Fremskrittspartiet, en. Progress Party
* H, Høyre, en. Conservatives
* KrF, Kristelig Folkeparti, en. Christian Democrats
* V, Venstre, en. Liberals
* SP, Senterpartiet, en. Centre/Centre Party
* AP, Arbeiderpartiet, en. Labour
* MDG, Miljøpartiet De Grønne, en. Green Party
* SV, Sosialistisk Venstreparti, en. Socialist Left
* R, Rødt., en. Red
The dividing line between the right and left is typically between V and SP.
**Method:** For each question/claim in the tool, the absolute difference between each party was collected, so for instance R answering „Strongly agree“ and FrP answering „Strongly disagree“ would result in a difference score of 4 for that question. The difference score is the sum of differences for all questions.
**Tools used:** Spreadsheet for collecting the numbers, exported to CSV. This was then further processed and grouped by a Javascript, to then be output using Plot.ly in a web browser, and exported to PNG.

It’s a cool idea but as a non-norwegian person it would have been helpful to at least have some insight on what topics are measured and what the rough political affiliation of these parties is.

Sorry OP but this one needed more time in the oven. The data is probably interesting, but you can’t understand anything at a glance.
