Iceland goes to the polls and prepares for complicated outcome
CNN
Icelanders vote on Saturday in an election that could have a messy outcome with a record nine parties likely to enter parliament, making it difficult to find common ground on topics like climate change and healthcare.
The North Atlantic island of 371,000 citizens has seen a period of stability since 2017 under the ruling left-right coalition, after years of political scandals and distrust of politicians following the 2008 financial crisis.
The current government coalition led by Prime Minister Katrín Jakobsdóttir's Left-Green Movement won its mandate on a promise to secure stability after Icelanders went to polls five times from 2007 to 2017.
