Polls barely moved after the last attacks. Geert Wilders did not "outright win" the election, he got 25% of the vote but was forced to abandon most of his anti-Islam rhetoric at the negotiation table, and even had to concede the position of PM to a bureaucrat formerly from the labour party. He's in a somewhat unstable coalition with three other parties which would lose their majority if elections were held today, and he doesn't have a majority in the senate.

Most lethal recent one was perpetrated by an AfD fanboy.
But they mostly had to station permanent police protection near mosques, synagogues and politicians from parties that aren't the AfD. Still over 1300 attacks last year alone.
