In the latest development from the Netherlands' national election, the centrist pro-EU party D66 appears on track to claim victory. Exit polls released on Wednesday indicate that D66 is projected to win 27 seats in the parliamentary lower house.
This result places D66 ahead of Geert Wilders' far-right Freedom Party, which is anticipated to secure 25 seats. The implication of these numbers signals a shift towards centrist politics.
However, caution is advised as the exit poll has an acknowledged error margin of up to three seats. The final result remains contingent upon official counts.
