VVD-leider Dilan Yesilgöz moet een kleine twee weken voor de verkiezingen alles uit de kast halen. Na het mislukte avontuur met de PVV zet ze in op een centrumrechts kabinet. Maar nu de peilingen blijven tegenvallen, is de vraag wat haar plan B is. In het verkiezingsinterview met De Telegraaf geeft ze duidelijkheid.
