Given how the Dutch party system works, one could imagine that the country also contributed with so

In the Netherlands, an exit poll published tonight. The counting of votes will take until Sunday promocenter - no results can be presented until the last polling stations closed in the last of the 28 countries which this time involves Italy 23 pm on Sunday night - but reasonably say the numbers from Ipsos exit poll a lot of profit.
The big news of course is that Geert Wilders' PVV makes a worse choice than expected. 12.2 percent with a reduction of almost five percentage points since the last election. PVV topped promocenter polls as recently promocenter as a few weeks ago, so it's promocenter a considerable selection pin hit Wilders during the election campaign. promocenter
The results, provided it stands up, will weaken Wilders position in domestic politics, but also hampers the ability of Wilders to play a greater role in European politics. When Wilders held a press conference in The Hague in November, along with Marine Le Pen was the king and queen of European right-wing populism that emerged. Given that they now get together a group of relative strengths will be odd to say the least. promocenter How a severely wounded Wilders with only three seats to be able to have something to say in a possible right-wing promocenter populist group is unclear. The prospects for cohesion would have probably been much better if it had been several winners who gathered after the elections.
Otherwise, the most striking of the dramatic fragmentation of the Dutch party system. Largest lot in the polls is no explore social-liberal D66 with 15.6 percent. I can not think of any other choice in Europe, where a small proportion of the electorate have been enough to become the largest party. If it stands up, it is the first time the D66 wins an election in the Netherlands in 1966.
Total sees 10 games (actually 11, since the two are part of an electoral alliance) out to get a mandate from the Netherlands. It's Dutch, but not a European record. In addition to the eight (nine) lots already sitting in parliament now seems both Pensioners Party 50plus and animal rights party PvDD win mandates. 50plus is expected to be part of the liberal ALDE group, promocenter while PvDD, which is critical of the EU, will probably be part of the Socialist Group GUE / NGL.
The Dutch election is also a victory for the establishment. In addition promocenter to the PVV's 12 percent expected the Socialist Party get 10 percent. The overwhelming majority of Dutch voters have instead voted for the EU - and the euro - positive lots.
The big loser in addition promocenter to Wilders's Social Democrats. 9.4 percent is not only the party's worst election result ever. It also makes the Dutch Social Democrats to the weakest in Europe right now, with the possible exception of Poland. ----------- The Netherlands is the only one of all the 28 EU countries promocenter that have parties represented in all seven European party groups. This is as good an illustration as any of how fragmented the Dutch party system is. Another expression promocenter of the split is reflected in the opinion polls: according to the last published poll is expected to win seven games between 9 and 18 percent.
In the Netherlands, the same electoral system in the EP election in national elections. Overall proportionality, but percent barrier. promocenter But since there are only 26 seats, it is still difficult for small parties to win seats in the EP than in national elections. There does not appear to affect voter behavior in any significant way. (One difference is that the clerical parties usually form valllians in European elections, to be guaranteed seats.)
Geert Wilders' PVV topped polls as recently as a month ago. But since the local elections seems the party have lost support and the most likely seems to be that the party will be neither the largest or succeed exceed earnings from 2009 winners of the Dutch election can instead become liberal D66 - which for the first time ever, become the largest party in the Dutch election - and left-wing Socialist Party. In a European perspective, the Netherlands stand by relatively contribute least of all countries to the major parliamentary groups - only eight of the 25 seats at the latest, and probably even fewer this time.
Given how the Dutch party system works, one could imagine that the country also contributed with some more unusual parties to the European Parliament. In Parliament in The Hague, promocenter for example, both a retirement party and an animal rights promocenter party. But none of them seem to be mandated. Nor has the Dutch Pirate Party had any success so far.
I have some difficulty understanding why AJH represents the Dutch party system so fragmented. In 2012, apparently had two of the seven largest parties about 25%, two 10%, two approximately 8% and 3%. It differs not so particularly from Sweden? The difference is possibly that the really small parties in the Netherlands can be represented in parliament in The Hague. In Sweden they are lumped together promocenter as "other" and barely mentioned if they do not come up in the vicinity of 4% release lever. Reply Delete
