    • VOTE INTENTION (D4) categories for Denmark are shifted in the original INRA codebook and SPSS data set. : Category '8' should be "Venstre" instead of "Demokratisk Fornyels" (not asked in EB 49), category '9' should be "Fremskridtspartiet" instead of "Venstre" and category '10' "Enhedslisten - De Rod-Gronne" instead of "Fremskridtspartiet".
