Visualized here. Hot tip for journalists: the real question isn’t why Wilders lost, but why the far right has consolidated — despite Wilders's ineffectiveness in government.

Met zojuist de uitslagen van Amsterdam toegevoegd, staat D66 ongeveer 15.000 stemmen voor op de PVV in de tussenstand met 99,7% van de stemmen geteld. Ik kan me niet indenken dat dit verschil nog overbrugd wordt met de laatste uitslagen. Dat betekent dat D66 de grootste partij is in stemmenaantal.

Why “the center wins” or “the center beats the far right” is the wrong way of looking at the Dutch election outcome…

Was a great event, thank you all!

I'm surprised they didn't lose more....

I missed Rachid (Azrout) earlier, but just rewinded. Another awesome colleague (and not so long ago, teacher!) on the main election broadcast. So lucky to work with these people! Again regardless of the elections results, forever impressed by my amazing colleagues!

Oh! I missed that second one then! My mistake.

I was also thinking about the exit polls: who are the folks that vote latest? Because they're not captured in the exit polls...

ELECTIONS!

My favourite thing about NL elections (cos lets be honest its never the result that is my favourite the last years) is seeing colleagues doing their thing! e.g. @sldelange.bsky.social @tomwgvdmeer.bsky.social on the live broadcast, also all the colleagues I know are behind the scenes!

Deffo, I mean, even for your #1 party, it's not like people are reading the manifestos (unless they are very special, or professionally obligated like us)... It's complicated, haha!

This is true of course, but if people are 'used' to a certain system, changing in such a way suddenly would in my guess, be less helpful? I guess then it is about the short vs long term benefits of course, in the short term it would be detrimental, in the long term perhaps less so.

It's important tho that ppl still feel voting for a smaller party has a point, else those parts of the electorate won't vote, and will become increasingly disillusioned. Not that I have the answer, but maybe it's time to start (seriously) thinking about how we do this?

At least at the moment there is the possibility of voting for a party that you feel better represents you/your interests entering as a (counter-)voice.

But voters of those parties do not feel represented by the others. I get your point but I think this would backfire into more non voters and more disillusion with politics. At least in my circle, there are already many non voters because there is no one for them to vote for....

Ready to rumble!

Exit polls @ 21h... 🫣

We are finally out!! Thanks to my fantastic co-authors, the anonymous reviewers, and @thejop.bsky.social editorial team. Publishing my first registered report has been an incredibly instructive and rewarding experience 🤓

Much has been said about political incivility, but does it actually exist? 🤷‍♀️

Peilingen duiden: 10 essentiële vuistregels voor duiders - StukRoodVlees Zetelpeilingen worden vaak misbruikt. Een tiental vuistregels om je publiek niet voor te liegen met non-nieuws.

Ook de laatste dagen van deze verkiezingscampagne is het belangrijk dat redacties en duiders - zeker ook die van talkshows, podcasts, of internetpagina's - peilingen op een juiste manier gebruiken.

In Amsterdam staat Museumplein vol voor derde Rode Lijn-protest De demonstranten eisen actie van de regering tegen Israël. Amsterdam is volgestroomd met mensen in rode kleding en met rode paraplu's.

Dit is óók een aanklacht tegen Dick Schoof en zijn incompetente, kwaadaardige kliek. Niet in onze naam.

Alles is politiek aan de rellen in Den Haag

Alles is politiek aan de rellen in Den Haag

kay so, rioting fascists attacking political party buildings and trying to storm the binnenhof complex isn't political? My bad, how naive of me to jump to such a conclusion

We are a country with a violence problem and a political problem, and sometimes those overlap, and we don't always know whether they're overlapping." - Dr. Lilly Mason

Anti-immigratie-demonstratie Den Haag escaleert, confrontatie met politie De actievoerders steken vuurwerk af en zwaaien met Nederlandse vlaggen maar ook met prinsenvlaggen.

Anti-immigration demonstration in the Netherlands escalates. This is exactly what happens when far-right ideas are tolerated and normalised over an extended period of time. The far right gains confidence and grows, both at the ballot box and in the streets.
