Polling Station

Today we, here in the Netherlands and there the Estonians, in Estonia casted our vote for members of the European Parliament. The other European countries will have their people vote in the coming days, until Sunday coming.

We Dutch have no compulsion to voting and alas many Dutch don't consider the importance of EU politics (and it actually is more important than our local politics!) so the number of votes given is low in our country.... 37% and only another 30 minutes to go.
** at 21.30 hrs it's known that 46% of the Dutch casted their vote today

And of course today the date of D-Day what was performed by the soldiers of then, 80 years ago, thinking their fight may end all wars in this world... Footage of today's ceremonies in NOrmandy
