We had little luck looking it up ourselves, and I am far too fried mentally now to try again just this moment (else I would be replying to Isaac also.)
It's really just a matter of entering "Norway" and "election" into Wikipedia, you know.
Incidentally, some of those articles seem to be mentioning that Oslo is in fact biased against with regards to seat distribution, in the sense that the thinly populated peripherical regions get considerably more seats relative to their population than Oslo does - apparently the far right feels that that's costing them seats.

I agree Romney will be the candidate.

I would say the math favors Romney over Obama, but it will probably be close either way.

I certainly hadn't considered much of that. I'm glad you posted it. *NM*

I also have not seen most of that mentioned in the popular vs. electoral debate.

a bit simplistic and unrealistic

When illustrating a point realism is not required and simplicity is a plus

IMHO, parliaments choosing prime ministers is LESS democratic than the electoral college.

After I thought about it more, I realized France and the US are not so different in that respect.

The closeness of several states when Obama was far more popular, and UTs heavily Mormon neighbors.
