Hans Konrad Foosnæs

Hans Konrad Henriksen Foosnæs (2 February 1846 – 30 July 1917) was a Norwegian politician for the Liberal Party.

He was elected to the Parliament of Norway from Nordre Trondhjems Amt in 1882, and then won five non-consecutive re-elections in 1888, 1891, 1894, 1897 and 1903.

He was challenged by no less than three other candidates from his own party; Ivar Aavatsmark, Ole Olsen Five and Lorents Mørkved.

However, Aavatsmark with Mørkved as running mate won 2,642 votes and hence the seat.

[4] In 1915 Foosnæs finished a distant third, now also beaten by the Labour candidate.
