According to the first extrapolation, Spö is 39.3 percent. Despite the loss of good two percent, as always in Vienna since 1945, it clearly ends in the first place. FPö tripled from the minimum of seven percent after the Ibiza recession in 2019 up to 20.5 percent. In its previous Vienna entry in 2015: good 30 percent with the leader of the Heinz Christian party, fear cannot contact him.
Green (14.7 percent) end in third place, which approximately holds their result. Conservative övp and liberal Neos ultimately 9.6 percent. This is almost half for övp, but a return to the “normal state”, since Vienna is a traditionally rigid plaster for him.
This is the benefit for Neo, which recently managed Spö. It is expected that all other lists, such as the communist KPö (4.1 percent) and the HC Strache team (1.1 percent) around the former Vice Chancellor FPö, will go to state parliament.
The worst Viennese spare leads to mate
It is expected that the old and probably also future Red mayor Michael Ludwig will be open to all two -variants, although in the case of Neo. If most of their mandate is most likely to be continued by Spö Neos. But greens and övp are also possible. Only FPö excluded Ludwig in advance as a coalition partner.
It is also clear that the result of Spö is the worst, which when he reached the Veni elections. And that, despite the fact that the mayor Ludwig successfully tried not to offer attack zones in the election campaign. And although other parties, with the exception of FPö, escaped more rude attacks on social democrats because they wanted to agree. Nevertheless: the result of the SPE vein is much better than throughout the country. Michael Ludwig remains no doubt.
The quality of life in Vienna is considered high: the city administration is effective, living space is relatively cheap thanks to more than 400,000 public and cooperative apartments. But the problems are growing, especially in the education and health system. A strong population growth of more than 200,000 people has been especially noticeable here since 2015.
More important than these two areas were only topics of inflation, security, refuge and immigration. This shows a representative survey of the ORF election conducted by the Foresight and ISA Institute. On the contrary, environmental and climatic protection played a small role, as well as record debts of the city.
Influence on federal policy, where övp, Spö and Neos ruled along with March, should not be expected. FPö will continue the drum against the alleged “party of the unit” and the alleged testament of people.
For the still young federal government, on the other hand, there is currently a chance of reforms in the depths, because by the fall of 2027 there are no elections, so there are no election campaigns. Painful structural reforms, such as in the pension system, are urgently necessary due to the difficult budget situation. In Vienna, on the other hand, the younger partner in the town hall is changing, including unlikely. The change of direction should not be expected.
