With nationalism on the rise, voters go to the polls to choose a new European Parliament. AP's complete coverage:

A woman with a child casts her ballot at a polling station during the second round of voting in presidential elections in Vilnius, Lithuania, Sunday, May 26, 2019. Local residents fills their ballots at a polling station during the second round of voting in presidential elections in Vilnius, Lithuania, Sunday, May 26, 2019. Voters are going to the polls to elect a president to succeed Dalia Grybauskaite, who has completed her maximum two terms in office.

“I don’t want to see a right-populist Europe wants to destroy the idea of togetherness,” said Manfred Weber, the lead candidate of the Christian Democrat center-right EPP group, currently the biggest in the legislature. The migration issue “will reorganize the political spectrum in the European Union,” said Orban, who recently met with Salvini but has not yet committed to joining the Italian’s group.

Projections released by the European Parliament last month show the EPP bloc losing 37 of its 217 seats and the S&D group dropping from 186 seats to 149. On the far right flank, the Europe of Nations and Freedom group is predicted to increase its bloc from 37 to 62 seats., argue that issues like climate change and reining in immigration are simply too big for any one country to tackle alone.

Austria is one of the countries where the vote also has importance to national politics, serving as a first test of support ahead of a national election in September following the collapse of Kurz’s governing coalition a week ago.

Does anybody besides me ever wonder why it's only the US and Europe that are required to be 'diverse?'

Let's discuss the fact that there are more black supremacists organizations per capita in the U.S. than white supremacist groups, but our biased, shrieking left-wing reporters cover up for the rise of black supremacists in the U.S.

Watch out for the new world order. It's Evil, and the chip.

Nationalism is one thing.willful ignorance and gullibility is another.

Correct. Proud Italian here. The Left is selling our countries to globalists, bankers, elitists and Arabs and we must reverse this trend. Juncker, Verhofstadt, Mogherini, Tajani, Tusk and many others are our enemy. Go LegaSalvini, go matteosalvinimi

nickmon1112 When did someone change the word Patriotism to nationalism? Obviously to suit a certain section higher up the food chain for their own ends ... I’m patriotic about my country, nationalism infers something more sinister which I & countless others are not

What’s wrong with being a nationalist?

No IN NL the legal immigrants are joining us saying this unchecked migration has got to stop and is destabilizing . In NL our nationalists contain morroccans, Surinamers, Hindu, Turkish and oh yes Germanic. PATRIOTISM KNOWS NO COLOR! Such low IQ. I worry about America.

Nice spin. Globalism is dying. Patriotism is on the rise

You should probably change your name to propaganda press.

With democracy and political engagement on the rise, voters are choosing something that many politicians don't like...

Nationalism on the rise?.............. FAKE GLOBALIST NEWS you are amazing. The agenda never ends. If people love their country they are not a problem. Guess what.... most people clearly see you are not journalists.

Go Brexit, yes Threxit

nickmon1112 If the UK stays in the EU, despite a democratic majority voting to leave, we will be staring down the barrel of WW3. New Nazis, New Commies, and Islamic Terrorists thrown in the mix. Video game franchises should take note: This Is How Evil Conquers Modern Humanity

I’m an American Patriot, I put my country first, ahead of every other country on the planet, I also put our people first, I am a NATIONALIST and I am proud to be so.

Nationalism- good or bad?

Lol tries so hard with these headlines... 'With nationalism on the rise..' should be more like 'With globalism on the decline...' Oh well..

the EU has failed to create cultural unity which is required for a political unity to endure. They have had 20 years to encourage a single language, a single culture, and instead they embraced diversity. Now they are shocked they are enduring division.

Why is nationalism on the rise? Party demagogues who say one thing to be able to sell another one?

sam_vinograd The degree to which it’s accepted is troubling.

Weird. I thought we did that experiment. Lotta bloodshed. Hate lost anyway. EuropeanElections2019 Unfollow this a$$hole:

Clarification: “White nationalism.”
