Kirsten Jacobsen (née Larsen; 18 February 1942 – 2 December 2010) was a Danish real estate agent and politician who was an elected member of the Folketing for the North Jutland County constituency for two non-consecutive periods from 1973 to 1981 and then between 1988 and 2001.
[3] She worked at her father's ice cream family as well as delivering their products and cared for her younger siblings after her mother fell ill. Jacobsen became a member of the Young Conservatives when she was 14 years old and was able to train as an authorised state real estate agent at an educational law firm in 1970.
[2] Jacobsen was re-elected to the Folketing again for the North Jutland County constituency in the 1988 Danish general election on 10 May.
[1] Jacobsen felt she was ignored by the party leader Helge Dohrmann; she was group chair for one week, feeling unsuited to a leadership role.
[2] She was a political rapporteur for the financial sector and the Faroe Islands, a member of the Business Ministers' Idea Group regarding Real Estate Trading as well as of the Inter-Parliamentary Union and of the parliamentary inquiry committee regarding Spar Nord's purchase of Himmerlandsbanken [da] in 1994.
[2] At the 1998 Danish general election, her large number of personal votes was enough to allow the Progress Party to remain represented in the Folketing with two seats.
She notified the party's parliamentary group and her constituency in November 1998 that she would step down the following year to enable her to spend more time with her family and friends.
Jacobsen remarried to the Norwegian real estate agent Erik Stormfelt on 30 June 1979 and remained married until his death on 20 December 1997.
