It’s not a popular opinion in the Netherlands but I would like Volt to be bigger. If I read about their perfect Netherlands, I really can get behind that. The thing is that they do describe a utopia with a lot of impossible things that are going to cost a lot of money. But hey, we gotta start somewhere, right?
I like how they are the only party you can vote on in all levels of government, including Europe. Even if they only get 1/2/3 seats next election, I don’t see them going away any time soon.
So for a long time the left has been struggling (like everywhere?) right before the previous elections the two biggest “left” parties merged. In the 2023 elections they were the second largest, after PVV. Let’s see if this time it plays out well.
Problem is unless they become the biggest they will be a second-choice for the big right parties (pvv and vvd). Except for CDA and D66 there isn’t a reasonably sized centre party left and they both might remain too small to form a government without at least one of the big right parties (vvd). But who knows, if vvd pvv shrink a lot it will turn the tables.
Let’s talk about others. I invite the Dutch people to tell us who they would like to see rise in this election.

They had three last election, and their three MPs have been very visible in debates.
I really hope they get five this election.
Go Volt!
