Dutch Elections: PM Rutte's Liberals slightly ahead in exit poll but Samson's PVDA can still win.

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte's Liberals are one seat ahead of the opposition Labour Party in a closely contested election, an exit poll after Wednesday's vote showed.

The two pro-European parties, Liberals and Labour, had 41 and 40 seats respectively out of a total of 150 seats in parliament, the exit poll by Dutch broadcaster NOS/RTL showed.

It seems however that the Labour party of Diederik Samson could still win if the predicted results in the Netherland's  large cities hold true.
