Relieved. Another disaster avoided. Netherlands and France are still in the sane zone, now hopefully Germany will follow that example.

The only extreme right party in Germany, the AfD, is at 9% right now. Those are 9% too much, for sure. But we are far from a situation where an extreme right party could be part of the government. I am still hoping for a left-left-green coalition like in Berlin. But that probably won't happen.

yeah, I hope so too. I watched the Le Pen saga with the same level of anxious interest as I did Brexit.

Wilders only holds 13% or so over here, though over here that means he is the second biggest party.

Germany: "For the first time with them there will be far right representation in the Bundestag."

I am so mad at this. They're the third biggest party now! 13% nationwide, and 21(!) in certain areas of Eastern Germany. Wtf is wrong with people.

Yeah, this is very scary and saddening.
