Hart Voor Den Haag Leads New Ipsos Poll as VVD Slides

PVV fields only three candidates, raising questions about seat allocation if it outperforms its list size.

Overview

The Ipsos poll commissioned by The Hague shows Hart voor Den Haag on 12 of 45 seats, with D66 and GroenLinks–PvdA each at 8.
VVD is projected to drop from 7 to 3 seats, while DENK rises to 4, PVV to 3, and Volt is set to enter the council with 1 seat.
PVV’s Hague branch is running with only three candidates; an expert explains that any extra seats would be redistributed as remainder seats and vacancies later could leave a seat empty.
Ipsos surveyed nearly 1,500 residents between January 12 and 25 and stresses the results are a snapshot, with a follow-up poll planned for early March ahead of the March 18 election.
Voters cite safety, crime and public order, housing, and livability as the most important issues shaping their choices.
