We're in an interesting political stalemate right now, with current polls showing Wilders' party (the PVV) at around 50% of voters

Ehm, which polls are that, and are they reliable? Every poll here has them at about 49 (out of 150) seats, i.e. one-third of voters.

(And of course, polls that are not near elections are very unrepresentative of what would actually happen if elections were to take place.)

You're absolutely right, it's seats, not percentage of votes.

Still a big increase from the current 23.5% of votes mandate netting them 37 seats.
