Dutch Election: Centrist D66 Edges Wilders' PVV in Exit Polls

D66's stunning victory proves voters reject Wilders' divisive politics and choose optimism over fear. Rob Jetten's positive campaign has delivered the party's biggest win in 59 years, expanding from 9 to 27 seats while Wilders crashed from 37 to 25. The far right has peaked in Europe, and this election is proof that mainstream parties can defeat extremism with the right message.
