Economic Worries Are Central in Dutch Vote - nytimes

THE HAGUE — In the first election in a euro-zone country since the European economic crisis, Dutch voters punished the incumbent party in parliamentary elections on Wednesday while seeming to split between opposite poles of the political spectrum.

The center-right Dutch Liberal Party had been expected to win the election after promising severe cuts in government spending. But it appeared to be tied with the center-left Labor Party, according to a final exit poll.

The anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim Freedom Party of Geert Wilders did very well and appeared to come in third, just ahead of the Christian Democrats, who led the last four governments. New York Times
