Tweede Kamerverkiezing 2023 – Quiet

It was surprisingly quiet during the evening.

Every four years the members of Second Chamber of the Dutch Parliament (called the Staten-Generaal or States General) have to be elected by the citizens of the Netherlands. The elections are direct and on the basis of proportional representation. The ballot papers are big, because of all the candidates and parties. A voter can vote on one person on the list, but most voters vote on the top candidate of a party.
