Re: TNS Nipo (none / 0)

What do you think these results would lead to, as there'd be no majority with any reasonable combinations?

Re: TNS Nipo (none / 0)

I think in about an hour / 90 minutes, the results will be fairly certain.

As for which coalition is possible, no idea really...It's all over the place....left is possible, right is possible, but with a lot of parties...2 parties might be possible with cda/pvda, but that's a slim majority...

ugh

I think (none / 0)

Later tonight. I'll come back with the results.

As for what's going to happen, it's still an open field. What's clear is that Balkenende (CDA) will remain in the government (Gah!!!) and SP should be invited to the negotiation table, seeing such a boost. Terrible, terrible.

Re: TNS Nipo (none / 0)

No idea!!! This is crazy! We've two major tv stations using different polling agencies and their predictions don't match at all!! Who's right?

But if CDA remains the biggest, they will start the negotiations. Balkenende IV is basically fact.
