Politics and Elections in the Netherlands: coalition agreement presented

[seb_pard]

Gennep flipped from VVD to SP! but both have lower % than 2012

[Diouf]

Wilders does not conquer the Cauberg hill* in Valkenburg either. Again a small progress. VVD stays the biggest party despite losing 6%


*Famous from Amstel Gold Race

[DavidB.]

Gennep just came in. SP lost quite some votes in Gennep, Roemer's neighbors. I start to think the prognosis of them losing is true.

Gennep flipped from VVD to SP! but both have lower % than 2012

And PvdA <only> tanked by 15%

[Vosem]

SP on the board with a win in Gennep, in spite of declining support there (and in every municipality that has reported to date, I think), which amazingly enough was a VVD municipality in 2012. It also voted SP in 2010, though before that it was a bellwether municipality, voting CDA in the 2000s and 1980s and PvdA in the 1990s.

PP on the whole seem to be doing roughly the same as their (disappointing and insufficient) 2012 performance -- no chance that Ancilla is doing better in the cities?

EDIT: Apparently, SP is barely up nationally at the moment from 10.6% to 10.7% -- what am I missing?

They are improving in some municipalities (for example Zuidhorn and Sudwest-Fryslan)

[Mike88]

Is there a site where we can check the raw vote totals by party? NOS site only has %'s.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

PvdA down 19.5% in Zuidhorn and down 22.5% in Littenseradiel

[seb_pard]

Well, apparently they are improving (SP) in the north (a light conclusion based on Achtkarspelen).

[Zanas]

Fascists get an underwhelming result in spite of a late fuss caused by Islamic jerks? Social traitors from a "social-democratic" party who governed 5 years as right-wing tools get brutally slashed? Both ecologist parties more than doubling their parliamentary representation? Say no more: I'm in.

GroenLinks wins in Amsterdam with D66 coming second

[SunSt0rm]

GL largest in Amsterdam with 19%

Denk 7%, Artikel 1 almost 3%

[Zinneke]

GL largest in Amsterdam with 19%

Denk 7%, Artikel 1 almost 3%

Bittersweet I guess.

[joevsimp]

GL seems to be underperforming exit polls

Wait for the big cities...

Speaking of which, Amsterdam!!

GL top the poll, but only with 19.3% and D66 just a point behind

[Tintrlvr]

Seems disappointing for GL relative to exit polls. How do they get to 11% nationally with just 19% in Amsterdam?

Because Amsterdam and the Randstad account for a massive chunk of the population? Its the first major urban zone declared.

The key is whether GL can maintain this in Utrecht, and get semi-decent results in The Hague and Rotterdam. I think judging by Amsterdam they will lose Utrecht to D66 though.

GL are below their exit poll figure right now nationally even though a majority of the votes reported are coming from Amsterdam.

Edit: Maybe the national tally was off. It's updated and they are at around 15% nationally now.

[Lachi]

Groningen goes for D66

[DavidB.]

DENK 7.5% in Amsterdam. All these people literally hate the Netherlands. I guess it'll be even higher in The Hague.

[Classic Conservative]

Denk wants to ban the word, 'immigrant'. What in tarnation! How about we ban them!

[SunSt0rm]

Denk + Artikel 1 more than 10% in Amsterdam. Its really disgusting

[Vosem]

Groen Links and D66 on the board with first places in Amsterdam and Groningen -- PP strong enough for a seat in both municipalities. 0.5% nationally, which is close to enough for a seat

EDIT: SGP on the board too with a hold in Hardinxveld-Giessendam. It voted for them in 2012 as well, so nothing revolutionary

[SunSt0rm]

Rumors are that Denk is larger than PvdA in Rotterdam

[I Won - Get Over It]

Denke are slightly bigger than PVV in Amsterdam

[seb_pard]

PvdD is doing really well
