Politics and Elections in the Netherlands: Rutte III era

[Dutch Conservative]

Josse de Voogd on right now. He says we should look closely at the result in Weert as it's the most "average" municipality in the first hour. I don't know about possible local parties in Weert, but since it's Josse de Voogd he's probably right (and Weert is a pretty average Dutch municipality as far as I know).

Lets see if CDA remains the largest party (besides the local party). I'm very curious of the performance of the CDA tonight.

Wow suprised by the exit poll in Rotterdam

Big losses for PvdA and SP. The left is punished by the (broken) left-islamic alliance

very dissapointing performance by PVV

Nida gaining votes while Denk is also performing well

A good performance by VVD. Im not that surprised about the PVV. Leefbaar has a pretty good record and history. Im worried about Denk.

Who would have thought that 20 years ago: the VVD larger than the PvdA in Rotterdam.

[Dutch Conservative]

Amsterdam, GL bigger than D66

GL 22% (+11.4%)
D66 17 (-9.6%)
VVD 12.4% (+1.3%)
PvdA 11% (-7.2%)
SP 6.8% (-4.3)
PvdD 6.7% (+3.9%)
Denk 5.7%
FvD 4.9%
Bij1 2.3%

Unbelievable good showing for GroenLinks. FvD disappoints. CDA no longer has a seat in the capital. Very poor result for that party so far, will they finally get rid of Buma?

Jesse Klaver on television. I probably have to stay neutral, but I still want to vomit.

It's disgusting.

Polling station where I'm counting massively against (65% or so). Lower middle-class The Hague, PVV-VVD-DENK in GE17. Ethnically mixed area. You heard it here first!

Very interesting. When this is a trend, I believe the against-vote can pull out a win. 45/55 on NOS now, but I have no idea which % has been counted.
