3 seats for DENK (the Turkish party) is very worrying though. That means we'll have a party in the Dutch parliament who puts the interest of a foreign nation above the interests of the country in which parliament they are. It's so clear even when looking at their programme: they want to pretty much kill the Dutch army and things like that, it's just too obvious that they want to make the country weaker against Turkey.. 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Second (and last) exit polls have the same result. Of course that's nothing official but it looks highly unlikely that VVD will lose, the tension and excitement is already over :p

Well, that is still only a fraction, unlike in other countries *cough* here *cough*, where the turkish party is the third biggest. :dunno:

True. They managed to get this together in a matter of a few months though, since they broke lose from the usually biggest left party :p

According to some analysts the exitpolls, given the unexpected turnout (above 82%), could not be 100% truthful. Unfortunately, if we also see the US elections and the English and Italian referendum, the high turnout could help Wilders.

 

@heywoodu when i can find the official live results? In Netherlands you have a page managed by the state that gives the results of the elections?

I have read both "High turnout can help Wilders" and "high turnout can help the smaller parties"..

No matter if Wilders would win or not, having a turnout of well above 80% is very good news.

 

And I'm still looking for a good site with results as well :d

 

It has started btw, the first 2 small towns (islands actually) have sent in their results, but of course 2000-3000 people mean nothing for the overall result.

@Gianlu33

You can find results per town here:

http://www.rtlnieuws.nl/verkiezingen

 

The total results will be on that page, if you click on 'Per gemeente' you can choose the towns and cities and see the exact number of votes. 'Nulstand' means there's no result yet, 'Eindstand' means it's the final result for that town/city.

    • It's good that Argentina is starting to get back on track economically. Every year, all of our alpine skiing teams train in August in Argentina in Ushuaia: "Fine del Mundo", as it advertises itself.
    • The relation of Trump with Russia and, more specific, with Putin is probably the most controversial (being generous) thing of the presidence of Trump, i dont believe the same but is clearly that China help democrats in that election, both are playing their games.   In Argentina the society is clearly divided, the people who are in the left side of the politics, peronist and kirchnerism are very against the goverment, propably the only genuine "rigth-wing" goverment since the recovery of the democracy in 1983. For me and the most part who are in the rigth wing: libertarians, nacionalist and conservatives, is probably the best goverment we see to this days, he made in his first year with a very few legislators in the congress some big and good changes:   1) In the economical: the inflation is only 3% per month since a more of 15% in the last months of the last year, Argentina has now fiscal, financial and comercial surplus-   2) Our country didnt have fighter planes and the goverment buy 24  American F16  -   3) He chances the electoral sistem for a "single ballot" sistem, we have an obsolete electoral sistem that doesnt change from the 19 century and specially, the peronist use for make fraud.   4) In my personal case, he really update the tax sistem for smal/medium profesionals and traders.......and that save us to pay the 50% of our earnings to the state.   With a big expectations in the goverment, its better than i thinked before.
    • It could be better, or it could be much worse, for example, if the accusations that he has been accepting large amounts of money from Russia since 2017 are confirmed. Now let Harris win, which will end Trump's political career and I hope that in 4 years the Republicans will put up someone more predictable.     btw, how is this controversial president of Argentina doing?
    • More predictable is not always better, for me the goverment of Biden was one of the worst of the History of USA and i cant imagine what can happen with even a worse version like Harris is.   I hope, for the contrary, Trump be elected and "may be" the things changes for the better in the world.
    • I once read that Harris had never been to Europe before 2020, when she became vice president. On the other hand, her foreign policy will be more predictable, because it will be a continuation of Biden's policies. That is why I hope Harris wins, although the bookmakers are betting on Trump.
    • Harris is totally green on foreign policy. It will probably be a policy 100% led by Biden's people. Harris' main campaign emphasis is on abortion and women's rights.
    • So much for "everybody's laughing at us if we elect Harris"
    • My favorite tennis tournaments of the year (wta/atp finals)
    • was also invited to the special edition of the Bolivarian Games and seems like  is not participating.
