RE: Pim has won the elections, now 2nd largest par
I would also have voted D’66 probably (leftie and liberal).
Anyway, it seems like your Harry Potter (Balkenende) will become the new PM. At least a name which will sound less silly in the foreign country (de Kok :-)).
I think a coalition between CDA, VVD and LPF would be the best option, but than I guess you’ll all have to vote again next year for the re-elections.
