The Danish electors are marking a protest against the government, and all three government parties are losing ground in the EU election.
However, unlike many other countries, it is the left and not the right that is taking votes from the centre.
The Socialist People's Party (SF) is doing strongly and, according to Denmark Radio, is becoming the largest party, while the Social Democrats (S), the Liberal Party (V) and the Moderates (M) are all falling back. V is worst hit, losing nearly 9 percentage points and halving its seats to two.
SF is now getting three of the country's 15 seats, one more than it had and as many as S. The party's success will be used as a catalyst to change the Danish political landscape, says party leader Pia Olsen Dyhr to Denmark Radio.
The Danish People's Party is managing to hold on to its single seat on the right-wing fringe.
This is how Denmark voted in the EU election, with 99.8% of the votes counted (parties that take up a seat in the European Parliament with group affiliation and difference from the 2019 result in parentheses):
Socialist People's Party (Greens/EFA) 17.4% (+4.2)
Social Democrats (S&D): 15.6% (-5.9)
Liberals (Liberal RE): 14.7% (-8.8)
Conservatives (Conservative EPP): 8.8% (+2.6)
Danish Democrats (others): 7.4% (not included)
Radicals (Liberal RE): 7.1% (-3.0)
Liberal Alliance (Conservative EPP): 7.0% (+4.8)
Unity List (Left Group GUE/NGL): 7.0% (+1.5)
Danish People's Party (EU-critical right-wing ID): 6.4% (-4.4)
Moderates (Liberal RE): 5.9% (not included)
