Dutch PM wins most seats, far-right shares second place: exit polls

THE HAGUE: The Liberal party of Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte was set to win the most seats in Wednesday's elections, forcing far-right Geert Wilders into second place along with two other parties, exit polls predicted.

Public broadcaster NOS said the VVD would take 31 seats in the next 150-seat parliament, with Wilders and his Freedom Party returning with 19 MPs, the same number as the Christian Democratic Appeal and the Democracy party D66.
