Political parties are listed for election

The electoral council on Thursday published the rankings for the 22 parties that are taking part in the election on September 12.


The ten main parties in the current parliament are listed in order of their number of seats, starting with the right-wing liberal VVD at number one and ending with the animal rights party PvdD at number ten.
New parties, such as the Pirates party, 50Plus and the Anti-Europe party were allocated their place by lottery.
