Politics and Elections in the Netherlands: coalition agreement presented

[ApatheticAustrian]

This result is historic. That red in the north will be gone tonight, wonder which color it gonna be tonight

fascinating indeed but less decisive than it would be in a country with a less fractured parliament.

Yeah the pluralities are screwing with your mind in those maps. Groningen´s PvdA vote split between 3 parties and PVV not doing well there lets Rutte get his we won the North moment. 
It will be interesting to see where the future centre-right government has a plurality.

Seems like forming a coalition will take a really, really, really long time.

That looks terrible for the PVV, and that's really all I could say I was hoping for in this election.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

PvdA: centre left: social democrats

Though rather enraged their electorate by not exactly being like this in government this time round, thus this result...

[MAINEiac4434]

PvdA on 6%. Jesus.

The Dutch will never beat our record. THey can't even beat our turnout record.

Honestly as it stands it seems straighforward. CU-D66-CDA in, PvdA out, Rutte stays PM. Work with the small parties in a minority. DavidB predicted this several pages ago when Wilders was on 30+ seats.

[DavidB.]

Vvd higher than in 2010 in this poll

[SunSt0rm]

I am very glad D66 is holding well or even win 1-2 seats compared to the polls. Most of the times it loses votes because of tactical voting

[MAINEiac4434]

PvdA: centre left: social democrats

Though rather enraged their electorate by not exactly being like this in government this time round, thus this result...

And hence the rise of GL.

[Diouf]

PVV almost doubling in the first two very small polling places.

[Mike88]

First results are in.

2 islands in the north.

WOW!! the PvdA went from 30.1% to 8.9% in these 2 islands!!

[mvd10]

I wonder whether the PvdA will be back to 25-30 seats in 4 years if we get a centre-right government. It might happen, but GL will try to become the main left-wing party. I don't think GL's appeal is broad enough for that but we can't rule it out.

And I really can't see how Asscher stays on after losing 29 seats. Dijsselbloem will remain in politics (probably as a MP since I don't think the PvdA will be in government) and I think he has bigger ambitions than being a backbench MP. And they always can appoint Aboutaleb (the very popular mayor of Rotterdam) leader.

[DavidB.]

Perhaps needless to say, but this is both the worst loss of a party in Dutch history and the worst PvdA result ever

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

PvdA needs to bring in Aboutaleb IMO.

They can make it back with Aboutaleb, if he doesnt turn out to be a Cohen

Is there any interactive map at all for this election?

[windjammer]

This is what happens everytime a social democrat party betrays its nase for muh third way non sense.

Good riddance!

The problem will be D66 and SGP, especially if the euthanasia issue flares up.

Euthanasia will be the main problem here yeah. But if PvdA and GroenLinks rule out to work with a VVD-CDA-D66 coalition it's the only option. We've seen how a coalition with the VVD worked out for the PvdA, I don't think GL would do much better.

I don't think it will be SGP, but the point still stands because CU have to be in there for a centre-right government.
I think they will try to negotiate with 50+ before SGP because they can buy off their electorate and get rid of it fairly easily. CDA and VVD +4 next election. Not sure if they have a majority in the FIrst Chamber.

[Vosem]

None of the three towns currently reporting are really base areas for the SGP, but why are they down from 2.1% to 0.7%? Seems like an ominous result for them.

Also very unfortunate to see PP currently not improving on the 2012 result...

[Dutch Conservative]

I think the coalition could be formed relatively quick: VVD, CDA and D66 is a logical combination. The small christian parties will support it from within or outside the coalition.
