License("URL to license or terms of use") in the link is not strictly an open license, and this seems to be since it's a general notice which also includes text, layout etc. on the website.

(Reviewer notice, 2014)

Edit 2015: Stastistics Norway publish all statistics for all elections and public votes on municipailty level, including registered votes, invalid votes, spoiled votes, blank votes and election turnout. The data is reported on municipality level (428 municipalities). All the data is open and licensed.

Edit 2015 II, (Oct 27, 2015): The election results are not reported at polling station level, but at the level of electoral district. This data can be found at valgresultat.no. You will find all the information about the election, including registered votes, invalid votes, spoiled votes, blank votes and election turnout. The data is also found, although aggregated to municipality level, at ssb.no: http://statbank.ssb.no/statistikkbanken/?PLanguage=1

Reviewer comments

This dataset has to be in a polling level station, any aggregation marks this as not available. I have changed the data to data exist, but not publicly available.
