The conclusions of a quick investigation into allegations of irregularities at some polling stations in Rotterdam at the local elections earlier this month will now be published on Wednesday, officials say.

The report had been due on Monday but more time was needed to make a ‘careful’ consideration of the facts.
According to the NRC, there were more than 100 incidents at the polls, ranging from multiple voting, one polling station being left unmanned for a few minutes and party workers trying to recruit support in the polling stations themselves. One ballot box was even found to be empty at the end of the day, the paper claims.
The city’s 220,000 ballot papers have also been recounted because of the controversy and the close result between Labour and local populist party Leefbaar Rotterdam.
