Good results from the Netherlands exit poll

[Gianlu33 4,693]

In the Netherlands, PvdA-S&D appear to have significantly outperformed expectations. From averaging at 11.7% in pre-election polls, the party is projected to win 18% of the vote in Ipsos' preliminary exit poll.

Not sure how good the big rise of PvdA is though.

Can I ask you why do you think this? Let me explain better: it is a problem regarding the ideas that this party carries on or is a problem connected to any specific person? 

I don’t know them at all neither I have ever been in Netherlands, I’m just curious. My curiosity is connected to the fact that recently in Italy parties are becoming highly personalized and mirroring their leaders, so I wonder if this happens abroad too.

 

Edit: I read too fast your message, sorry ? but still, it seems to me that you are somehow not happy with this party, so my question is still valid :D

I don't much like PvdA's general ideas, it's way too 'left' for me in terms of stuff like immigration, crime, economy.

Not surprising that they can't do like last election, but that's tough!

But people mentioning radicals reminds me of a classic history. 

We usually have some people campaigning in the US presidential elections. Once a person traveling to America wrote "Radical Left" as political affiliation. Gave quite a moment when they came to the US
