The centrist liberal D66 party has won the Dutch election, according to the national press agency ANP.
Rob Jetten’s D66 and Geert Wilders’ far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) emerged as the equal largest in Wednesday’s election with 26 parliament seats each, but with almost all votes counted, ANP said Friday that D66 could not be caught for first place.
It’s a narrow victory, with the party just 15,155 votes ahead of the PVV, with 99.7 percent counted.
The result means Jetten is in pole position to piece together a coalition government — a right typically reserved for the largest party — and to become the Netherlands’ prime minister if he succeeds.
