Party | Votes | % | Seats | Change |
N-VA | 2,199 | 28.4% | 7 | +1 |
CD&V | 1,903 | 24.6% | 6 | +1 |
Groen | 1,819 | 23.5% | 5 | +2 |
Open Vld | 1,007 | 13.0% | 2 | +2 |
sp.a-plus | 813 | 10.5% | 1 | -1 |
7.741 | 100% | 21 |
If sp.a had got three more votes, they would have got the last seat instead of CD&V, so the balance between them would have been 5 to 2 instead of 6 to 1.
So all three parties in the ruling coalition gained seats, in fact to the point that any two of them can now form a coalition excluding the third. I imagine that the deal will be done this evening over a pintje or two.
