Samsom votes PvdA in Leiden

PvdA-leader Diederik Samsom has cast his vote in the municipality of Leiden. At around 8 a.m., his ballot went into the box at care center Topaz Groenhoven, he said on Twitter. Samsom voted together with the Leiden frontrunner for the PvdA, Gijs Holla, who got Samsom's vote. The PvdA is not the biggest party in Leiden. That position belongs to the D66. Mayor Henri Lenferink is PvdA. The party is under threat of losing big in many municipalities, according to recent polls.
