Share of votes in previus election. Flat rate by votes received; share of expenses reimbursed; funding cannot be higher than the private funds raised by the party. Flat rate per vote received (rate lower after the first 4 million votes). Also matching funds (EUR 0.38 per EUR 1 donated for donations below EUR 3,300). Funding can however not be higher than the private funds raised by the party
