General elections were held in Denmark on 21 September 1971 and in the Faroe Islands on 5 October.[1][2] The Social Democratic Party remained the largest in the Folketing, with 70 of the 179 seats. Voter turnout was 87% in Denmark proper, 57% in the Faroe Islands and 52% in Greenland (where only one of the two constituencies was contested as the other had only a single candidate who was elected unopposed).[3]
Electoral system
[edit]All members were elected by party-list proportional representation in multi-member constituencies and in levelling seats filled at-large using overall party vote shares. The districts elected between 2 and 14 members each. They were the first elections using the new counties as constituencies.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
