Dutch election: D66 and PVV neck and neck with smallest difference ever

Dutch Election: D66 and PVV in Historic Deadlock

With nearly all votes counted in the 2025 Dutch general election, Rob Jetten's D66 and Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom (PVV) are neck and neck, separated by only a few thousand votes.

This margin is the closest in Dutch history, resulting in both parties securing 26 out of 150 seats. At 99.6% of votes counted, PVV holds a slight lead with approximately 1,300 votes.

Despite this, Rob Jetten is being seen as the winner of this year's election campaign, with his image on the front pages of newspapers. The narrow margin means it may take days to determine the largest party, according to NOS.
