''Velgeren'' ("The Voter") was a Norwegian newspaper, published in Gjøvik in Oppland county. It started on 2 September 1904 under the name ''Vælgeren'', and was affiliated with the United Norwegian Workers' Association (''De forenede norske Arbeidersamfund''; in 1911 renamed as Labour Democrats) who had lost their organ ''Oplændingen''. Editor-in-chief was Hans Volckmar from 1904 to 1907, then Ivar Tveit. From 1920 the newspaper supported both the Labour Democrats and the Liberal Party. The two parties cooperated closely on the political level as well. The newspaper modernized its name to ''Velgeren'' in 1925. Ivar Tveit left as editor in 1925, when the newspaper was essentially bankrupt; Aksel Hoel took over as editor from 1925 to 1936. Alf Rønning was editor from 1936 to 1940, Ludvig Thorsen from 1940 to 1942. Both Rønning and Thorsen were fired during the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany, because they had been hostile to the Nazi occupiers.〔 From 15 May 1942 to 31 May 1944 the newspaper was published as ''Oplendingen'' under close scrutiny from the Norwegian Press Directorate, and with Ola Hjelt as editor.〔 After the Second World War, ''Velgeren'' resurfaced, with Rønning returning as editor and Thorsen as manager. After its last issue on 30 September 1965 it was merged with the Centre Party newspaper ''Samhold''. Alf Rønning was the political editor until 1973. Its name lived on in the constellation ''Samhold/Velgeren'' until 1984.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Velgeren」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
