Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s conservative party has won the most seats in the country’s parliamentary election, putting him first in line to form a new ruling coalition, according to an exit poll. Rutte, 54, has been in power for more than a decade at the head of three different coalitions and could become the country’s longest-serving prime minister if he manages to find coalition partners. The exit poll for national broadcaster NOS forecast after voting ended on Wednesday that Rutte’s People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy would win 35 of the 150 seats in the lower house of parliament.More Related News
