Great excitement ahead of Sunday’s Vienna elections! A very specific scenario could make Strache’s mayor, Ludwig, shine in the event of a defeat.
The last major poll ahead of Sunday’s Vienna elections lists Mayor Michael Ludwig and the SPÖ with 42 percent of the vote, that is, the clear winner. However, as things currently stand, the Social Democrats need a coalition partner, and the Greens have been doing so since 2010. But as a simulation of the ARGE Wahlen mandate shows, the SPÖ could, under certain circumstances, achieve a majority absolute in the municipal council with less than 50 percent of the votes.
Then the SPÖ would reach the absolute
The experts expected the following electoral result (fictitious): 46.5 percent for the SPÖ, 16 for the ÖVP, 12 for the Greens, 11.5 for the FPÖ, 4.5 for the HC Strache team and 2.5 for cent for the rest of the holidays. This scenario would ensure 51 of the 100 municipal mandates of the SPÖ if the basic and remaining mandates were distributed favorably. If Strache reaches the town hall, the absolute for the SPÖ only comes out with a very close result or with more than 50 percent.
But: these are speculations. The SPÖ is 42 percent in the polls. Michael Häupl reached 39.6 percent in 2015. Survey researcher Peter Hajek also “Today”: “Michael Ludwig was able to win in profile and acts as an anchor for voters beyond the central SPÖ electorate.”
By the way: if Strache doesn’t make it to city council, he still has 23 more chances for a term. The president of the THC is the main candidate for the district council elections in all the municipal districts of Vienna. There is much less money in the district parliament than in the local council. As a club president without a professional ban, Strache would earn 8,930.90 euros a month there, at the district level just a few hundred euros. All the information HERE >>
