In the last De Hond poll before the government fell, only a four-party combination was possible, raising the spectre of a very long coalition formation process.
But now support for the Labour party (was 15, now 33) and Liberals (was 22, now 32) has gone up so much a three-party coalition with either the Christian Democrats (27), PVV (17)or D66 Liberals (10) could become a reality, the poll shows.
A right-wing cabinet of CDA, VVD and PVV would also be possible.
