Icelanders go to the polls for 3rd time in 4 years

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) — Icelanders are voting for the third time in four years as the nation tries to shake off the latest political crisis on an island that has been roiled by divisions since its economy was ravaged by the global financial crisis in 2008.

Polls suggest there won't be an outright winner in Saturday's parliamentary election, triggering complex negotiations to build a coalition government.

A record eight parties could cross the 5 percent threshold needed to qualify for seats in the Icelandic parliament, the Althingi. Upstart parties are benefiting from a series of scandals affecting the ruling Independence Party.
