It is no coincidence that the Dutch Government is suddenly so tough on a foreign national who is interfering in Dutch policy. It’s right before the election, in which Geert Wilders is expected to make big gains in power. This phony toughness will be replaced with mealy-mouthed obsequiousness as soon as the powerful have secured their power, through means fair or foul.

They should tell Erdogan they'll "have more flexibility after the election."

Lets hope Geert Wilders does well on Wednesday.

There’s a Wikipedia page that lists polling data for the Dutch election.

The 150 seats are allocated on a proportional basis. so there’s a whole bunch of parties splitting the vote.

The latest “Peil” poll out yesterday March 10th shows the party of the Prime Minister Mark Rutte, the VVD (Liberals) at 24 seats, the party of Geert Wilders, the PVV (Party of Freedom) at 22 seats.

Also in the running for top spots, the CDA (Christian Democratic Appeal) at 22 seats and the GL (Green Left) at 20 seats.
