Yes, the Green party won. Like last time they have 2 seats in the central government (which is thought to be the last Parlament for the Netherlands Antilles, as changes are supposed to take place 1st of July 2007). The Red party got togehter with the Blue and the Yellow party and managed that way to secure the 3rd seat for Bonaire in the Central Government.

By the way, the lt.Governor (as the lt.governors of the other islands and the governor of the Netherlands Antilles) is not elected, but appointed by the Queen - after propositions from the concerned islands and in case of the governor from the central government.
