Summary Norway's parliamentary election is set for September 9.
STOCKHOLM (AP) - Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg dressed up as a taxi driver and took passengers around Oslo in an unusual election campaign stunt.
A video that his Labor Party posted on social media Sunday shows the candid camera-like moments when the passengers realize the man behind the wheel is Stoltenberg.
The prime minister says the point was to find out "what people really think. And if there s one place where people really say what they think about most things it s in the taxi."
Labor Party spokeswoman Pia Gulbrandsen said an advertising firm helped set up the stunt. She said most of the passengers hailed Stoltenberg s cab while others "were told that they would be picked up" but not by whom.
