DUTCH LOCAL ELECTIONS: LIBERALS AND WILDERS BIG WINNERS
3/4/2010 9:56:33 PM

The Liberal parties VVD and D66 emerged as the big winners in the Dutch local elections on March 3, making gains in district, town and city councils nationwide. Geert Wilders' anti-Islam PVV became the biggest party in Almere and number two in the Hague, the only two cities where it took part.

 

The ruling Christian Democrats and the Labour party lost seats, although Labour's losses were not as heavy as forecast earlier. The party appears to have benefitted from its decision to pull out of the national government over Afghanistan.
