Europe-wide results will be announced on Sunday night after all member states have completed voting.
Four days of voting are getting under way in European Union parliamentary elections across the 27 member states that are expected to deliver gains for the hard right.
The EU elections are the world’s second-biggest exercise in democracy behind the election in India, and the stakes are high. While many voters are predicted to move to the right, the Christian Democrat-dominated European People’s Party led by European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen is the EU legislature’s biggest bloc and is bound to be the coalition kingmaker when the dust settles on the election results.
He and one of his likely coalition partners, the Farmer Citizen Movement, are popular among farmers in the Netherlands who have staged regular protests to call for an easing of EU legislation they say is crippling their livelihoods.Mr Wilders has in the past called for the Netherlands to leave the EU as Britain did, but his party’s manifesto for the election makes no mention of a so-called Nexit.
