The Netherlands elects a new prime minister today. This will be the first time after Mark Rutte's 13 years of government that they will elect a new prime minister. Four parties, from left to right, will fight for as many mandates in parliament as possible.
From Anne Frank's house in Amsterdam to the Dutch Caribbean islands, more than 13 million voters will cast their ballots in an election that could set the country on a different path after four successive governments of Mark Rutte.
With recent polls showing a surge in support for Geert Wilders' far-right Freedom Party (PVV), the final days of the campaign have been marked by debate over "tactical voting" and possible coalition deals. Whatever the outcome of the vote, this election, as the Guardian writes, will change the Dutch political landscape and opinion there hopes that pressing issues such as housing, immigration, the climate crisis and the like will be resolved.
Based on the research, it seems that there will no longer be any major party in the parliament, so none of the parties will have a large majority in the parliament. Tom Louwerse, a professor at Leiden University's Institute of Political Science who runs the polling averages site, said the fact that it was a close fight between four parties meant that both a right-wing and a centrist coalition left with Timmermans, were possible.
