Good opportunities: the HC Strache team could reach several district parliaments.

The HC Strache team with Heinz-Christian Strache as the top candidate in the Vienna elections failed to join the Vienna City Council, but the former Vice Chancellor could become the Vienna District Council.
According to current projections after the Vienna elections, Strache and his new party, Team HC Strache, failed at the five percent hurdle. However, you could become a district councilor if you wish. Because the party will probably be represented in some district parliaments.
The vote-by-mail count is still running
There are no mandates assigned yet, as the mail ballot count has not yet been completed. The distribution of terms of office is only then calculated, taking into account factors such as the number of eligible voters and voter turnout. In any case, there is no barrier to entry for districts as well as at the community level.
The HC Strache team has not yet “notified anything”
A decision has not yet been made in the party. “We haven’t discussed anything yet,” the team’s general secretary Christian Höbart said on Monday in response to a request from the APA. It is not yet known where there will be how many mandates. Only when this is known will appropriate decisions be made. Höbart noted that it was not yet clear in which district representatives only individual district councils would be available and where the club would be strong.
It is possible to move as a district council in 16 districts
Strache’s team is expected to receive one to three terms (29 total) in 16 of the 23 district representatives. This stems from the latest SORA-ORF term forecast for district representative elections, including postal votes. If the top candidate, Heinz-Christian Strache, really wanted to become a district councilor, he could do so in one of these 16 districts, including his home district, Landstrasse.
Because the former vice chancellor and former FPÖ leader will probably not become a member of the state parliament and local council. Your new list will not pass the five percent hurdle required to move in. In addition, there should be no mandate in Districts 4-9 and 18 at the district council level.
Other small lists that have tried it all over Vienna and were unsuccessful at the municipal council and state parliament level will also pass to the district representatives. The KPÖ LINKS alliance, for example, also fought for one or two terms apiece (18 in total) in 16 districts, unlike Strache, especially in the downtown area. According to the forecast, BIER has one mandate each in twelve districts, and the SÖZ party around former Pilz MP Martha Bißmann can send seven members to six district parliaments.
