Dutch Election: Liberals and Far-Right Battle for Top Spot
The centrist D66 and the anti-migration Freedom Party are fighting for the top spot in the Netherlands election, according to exit polls.
Rob Jetten’s liberal D66 party and Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party are neck and neck, with D66 projected to get 27 seats and Wilders’ PVV close behind with 25 seats, according to an exit survey by Ipsos I&O.
Led by 38-year-old Jetten, a former climate minister, D66 has surged in recent weeks with its pro-EU climate-focused agenda, positioning itself as a moderate alternative to Wilders’ far right and traditional conservatives.
The center-right liberals of the People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) are projected to come third with 23 seats.
