General elections were held in Denmark on 8 September 1987.[1] Although the Social Democratic Party remained the largest in the Folketing with 54 of the 179 seats, the Conservative People's Party-led coalition government was able to continue. Voter turnout was 87% in Denmark proper, 69% in the Faroe Islands and 45% in Greenland.[2]
