Politics and Elections in the Netherlands: coalition agreement presented

[Tender Branson]

My college has endorsed DENK.

No, Erdogan's Online-SS hacked several Twitter pages today.

[Technocracy Timmy]

So far is the turnout in these areas boding well for Wilders or not?

[Tender Branson]

Regarding the "Centrum" district, which is already at 98% turnout ...

I guess it will soon pass 100%, because people from other parts of Holland are voting there as well ?

[Classic Conservative]

Rotterdam Center is up to 98% turnout. Will that help the left leaning parties?

Hard to say.

Some working-class and PVV stronghold areas I have seen data from so far are not boding well for Wilders ...

You can vote at any place in your municipality. The main train station is there, so many people are voting before or after they travel to work.

In general

City centre: VVD, D66 & GL strongholds
Outer city: PVV, SP & PvdA strongholds

Voters from the outer city can vote in the city centre as well

I expect some shockers tonight. VVD well over 30 or PVV over 25 wouldn't surprise me.

[DavidB.]

Utrecht is at 75.9% turnout. Total turnout in 2012 was 76.1% there.

Many cities are now reporting that turnout is already higher than in 2012 with 1,5 hour left. Groningen e.g. at 77%

Dutch Election Turnout 69% as of 7:15pm vs 60% in 2012: Ipsos
By Rudy Ruitenberg
(Bloomberg) -- Dutch election turnout slightly lower than in 2006, when it was 70% at the same time, pollster Ipsos Nederland says on Twitter account.
Earlier at 5:45pm, turnout was 55% vs 48% at same time in 2012 elections
At 3:45pm, turnout was 43% vs 37% in 2012
At 1:45pm, turnout was 33% vs 27% in 2012.

[Dutch Conservative]

NOS reports 69% turnout now, compared to 60% in 2012.

I just voted in my city (Woerden, nearby Utrecht) and it was still very busy there.

Im trying to find more turnout numbers from Limburg, but they are hard to find.

[DavidB.]

Turnout was 62.6% in Rotterdam in 2012 -- now it is 67.2%.

Wow, that has to be good news for Wilders.

The AD conducted an exit poll in Heemskerk, one of the places in the Netherlands that votes closed to the national average. The results:

VVD 35
D66 19
PVV 19
CDA 18
SP 16
GL 11
PvdA 10
50PLUS 8
CU 4
FvD 3
PvdD 3
DENK 1
Pirate's party 1

Take it with a grain of salt. SGP and CU probably score low because Heemskerk isn't in the bible belt, I think these parties will be fine in the end. The high score of VVD and the low score of GL both are very surprising. But like I said: take it with a grain of salt. And perhaps Heemskerk won't be close to the national average this time. Iowa voted Obama in 2012 while being to the right of Texas in 2016.

Which areas of Rotterdam, have high populations of refugees and high Islamic/immigrant population?

I wouldn't be surprised if the VVD get 35 seats tbh.

[Double Carpet]

Does anyone have a link for live Dutch TV streaming that can be watched outside the Netherlands?

Thanks!

[mvd10]

Yeah. From what I've heard I think the VVD will get more seats than they got in the polls. 35 is a lot though.

I think they did this just at 1 polling station, so I would be very careful (as are you) to draw any conclusions.

GL is definitely too low

[DavidB.]

This has all been discussed on the previous page, as far as I know.

Does anyone have a link for live Dutch TV streaming that can be watched outside the Netherlands?

Thanks!

npo.nl or nos.nl, but I don't know if you can watch them abroad. Otherwise the NOS may have a Facebook livestream.

[ApatheticAustrian]

seems like europe is winning this night.

[windjammer]

seems like europe is winning this night.

I would say corrupt oligarchs

[DavidB.]

seems like europe is winning this night.

I don't have that impression, but hope you're right.
