Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

Chapter 1058 The results of the Dutch election are out

On January 7, 1882, the results of the Dutch general election were announced. Not surprisingly, the Socialist Party won 24 of the 39 senators in the Dutch Senate, followed by the Liberal Party with 7, the New Christian Party with 5, and the Old Christian Party. The party won 2 places, and the independent party won 1 place.

At this point, plus the Socialist Party's previous control of 16 senators, the Socialist Party has won a total of 40 senators, just over half of the total 78 senators.

22 from the Liberal Party, 9 from the New Christian Party, 5 from the Old Christian Party, and 2 without party membership.

In the House of Representatives, the Socialist Party controls 245 of the 600 members of the House of Representatives.

Liberal Party 165,

90 members of the New Christian Party.

Old Christian Party 75

25 people have no party membership.

The King of the Netherlands has a population of 61 million and has more than 43 million voters. Although 18 million blacks and indigenous people have the right to vote, they need up to 20 guilders (2 pounds, nearly half of the monthly income of blacks and indigenous people). Only people have the right to vote, so less than one-fifth of the people actually voted, that is, 3.6 million people participated, and the other 14.4 million chose not to vote.

The final result naturally favored the white Dutch.

No way, this is a global practice, and it is even more serious in the United States than in the Netherlands. In recent years, it was said that the income of black people and indigenous people was less than one-twentieth of the local white people.

Unlike here in the Netherlands, the average difference is basically only 5 to 10 times.

In the United States, although black people have obtained the right to vote, basically only a few elites participate in this feast.

On January 18, 1882, after nearly two weeks of manual calculation, the results of the Dutch Prime Minister election were announced.

Among the 44 million votes cast in the Netherlands, Socialist Party Jules Danetang received 29 million votes, and former Prime Minister de Vries of the Liberal Party won the remaining 15 million. Jules Danetang greatly surpassed De Vries by 14 million, almost 14 million votes. Twice the votes.

On January 20, 1882, after two days of fair vote verification, the Dutch Election Committee officially submitted that the election was fair and the vote verification was normal, and a written report was sent to the Dutch royal family.

On the same day, William IV officially signed and recognized the election results.

The election committee member subsequently announced that Jules Danetang was officially elected as the new prime minister of the Netherlands and will formally form a new cabinet on February 20.

As the Dutch general election came to an end, while the Kingdom of the Netherlands breathed a sigh of relief, the Netherlands' global allies also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the results of the Dutch general election were somewhat unexpected, I originally thought that after four years of precipitation, the Liberal Party would turn around again and continue to govern strongly.

After all, four consecutive prime ministers for 16 years from 1862 to 1878 were from the Liberal Party. It was only from 1879 to 1882 that the Christian Party and the Socialist Party jointly formed a cabinet, and the Liberal Party was able to be driven out of power.

The Socialist Party has previously stated that it will not form a new cabinet with the Christian Party again.

Although the Christian Party intends to renew its relationship, the Socialist Party is unwilling, and the former reluctantly announced its candidacy alone.

But then there were internal fights within the Christian Party, and the fight between Rasha and Lyndon worsened in vain. In the end, the Liberal Party seemed to benefit, but the Socialist Party even attracted most of the fringe figures and became the biggest gainer.

The Christian Party subsequently split and became two new political parties, so the Socialist Party suddenly became the second largest party.

But even so, no one thinks that the Socialist Party, a newly rising upstart, can win this election better than the Liberal Party, a major party with a history of 70 years.

But accidents often occur at these impossible times.

The Socialist Party and the Liberal Party are at loggerheads. First, the Queensland Hall family of the Liberal Party, which is the Liberal Party's base, was reported for corruption and misappropriation of government finances. They became the target of public criticism. The Liberal Party's image plummeted, which was linked to these two terms.

Not to be outdone, the Liberal Party began to fight back in New Zealand, the stronghold of the Socialist Party. The Socialist Party’s senatorial candidate Sharon was reported to have insulted and slandered the Dutch royal family, which led to criticism of the Socialist Party’s efforts to recruit people into the party on the issue of immigration, and its casual targeting of immigrants. Joining the party has resulted in a mixed bag of good and bad members of the Socialist Party, and the image of the Socialist Party has also declined.

After that, the two parties began to fight back and forth in public opinion. In the end, each side had a fifty-fifty vote. Sharon was disqualified from running and subsequently faced a court decision.

The Liberal Party was also asked to be careful and not to hype up the royal family's issues again.

Two exchanges between the two parties ended in a draw.

This move made people feel refreshed about the Socialist Party, and they also gained trust in the Socialist Party's role as the Christian Party to check and balance the Liberal Party.

The Socialist Party then launched its propaganda machine, taking advantage of young people's dissatisfaction with the Liberal Party and the Christian Party, and aggressively solicited young people to vote for the Socialist Party, a young party that had only been founded for 11 years.

It seemed that the sentiment was shared, and young Dutch people supported the Socialist Party in large numbers.

As for immigrants, the Socialist Party has always occupied the majority, and so have black people and indigenous people. The people who returned to the Netherlands from Northern Belgium are also the basic base of the Socialist Party.

As a result, the results of this election came out unexpectedly.

The Socialist Party made a decisive move and took over the power of the new Dutch cabinet government from February 20, 1882 to February 19, 1886.

“We are very happy to congratulate Mr. Jules Danetang on being elected as the new Prime Minister of the Netherlands. We will uphold the method of cooperation and mutual assistance to establish a stable relationship between the two countries. At the same time, I am willing to establish the American Federation with Mr. Jules Danetant. A comprehensive alliance system between China and the Kingdom of the Netherlands."

On January 21, 1882, in Washington, the capital of the Commonwealth of America, the new President Garfield, who was elected at the end of December last year and only moved into the White House yesterday on January 20, announced his love for Giulda Netan when he held a press conference at the White House. Attitudes towards being elected Prime Minister of the Netherlands.

"The United States and the Netherlands are both leaders and navigators in the electrical industry revolution. On this basis, we are willing to jointly develop an internationally standardized electrical industry, increase interaction between the two countries, and jointly cooperate to face other global challenges. .

Once again, I am very grateful to Mr. Jules Danetang who specifically raised his objection to the British group's efforts to prevent the Confederate States of America in the southern part of the Confederate States of America during the election. Not only me, but the entire United States who want to unify have this in mind. gratitude. "

“I have sent an invitation letter to the newly elected Prime Minister of the Netherlands, inviting him to visit the Commonwealth of America after forming a new cabinet on February 20. I will discuss with him the cooperation between the Commonwealth of America and the Dutch-led G13 Latin American Alliance. matters, because only in this way will the United States be able to work on American affairs more feasibly."

"We will not let European countries indulge in wanton invasion in the Americas. This is not in the interest of any country in the Americas, including Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico, which is currently facing a war."
