A new Politics/Elections poll has been created.

Belgium is holding parliamentary elections which could bring the country closer to a constitutional split. The Flemish separatist party, the New Flemish Alliance (NVA), is expected to do well in the vote. Belgium is in effect two separate communities held together by a bi-lingual political system: 4 million French speakers in Wallonia, 6.5 million Dutch speakers in Flanders for a total of just 7.7 million voters.

The party, led by Bart De Wever, wants to more fully divide the country between Dutch-speaking Flanders and French-speaking Wallonia. But the NVA would have to form a coalition with Wallonian parties. Click here for full article.
