Comment

A rare election with only two candidates. Both of them women. Dimadick (talk) 17:11, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Large winning margin

I remember having read at the time that the very large majority obtained by Vigdís was interpreted as a show of disapproval for challenging the incumbent president, but can find no valid references. If anyone has them, it could be a valuable addition to the article.--Gorpik (talk) 11:30, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
