About these figures
The figures come from CBS StatLine (opens in a new tab) and the election results database of the Electoral Council (opens in a new tab). A script retrieves them through the open interfaces of both organisations; the date at the top of this page shows when that last happened. Where we show Hilversum and Wijdemeren together, counts are added up and percentages are weighted.
