So you're saying it must be an insult for Kevin to be mistaken for me? NOW I'm insulted!  |

The elections had quite an interesting outcome:
CDA (christian democrats) 41 seats PvdA (labour) 33 seats SP (socialists) 25 seats VVD (liberals) 22 seats PvdV (nationalist liberals) 9 seats GroenLinks (green party) 7 seats ChristenUnie (relatively progressive orthodox protestants) 6 seats D66 (progressive social-liberals) 3 seats PvdD (animal party) 2 seats SGP (conservative orthodox protestants) 2 seats others no seats
So what this means: - The only party that is pretty much certain of making the coalition is the CDA - The PvdA only wants to join them in a coalition if the SP can join it as well - CDA doesn't get along very well with the left (= PvdA, SP, GroenLinks) - A right coalition is not an option because nobody wants too work with the PvdV (too radical) and on their own the CDA and VVD can never get a majority and of course none of the left parties will help them out here - So unless the CDA is willing to make some serious compromises with the left they will never be able to come up with a stable coalition |

Another prediction: CDA-PvdA-PvdD!
Would've been impossible a few hours ago, but today after a recount the SP lost one seat and the PvdA gained one. |
