There's also a new book that will be released this week studying the "values" of Austrians over time. The study was conducted in 1990, 1999 and 2008.

Some interesting findings:

Percentage of Austrians who say they would NOT like the following as their neighbours:

Drug addicts: 65% (change compared with '99: +12)
Rightwing-Extremists: 61% (+1)
Drunks: 59% (+6)
Leftwing-Extremists: 48% (-2)
Criminals: 45% (+18)
Mentally unstable persons: 36% (+18)
Roma: 32% (+7)
Muslims: 31% (+16)
People with AIDS: 27% (+10)
Homosexuals: 25% (nc)
Foreigners: 23% (+8)
Blacks: 18% (+11)
Jews: 18% (+10)
People with many children: 15% (+11)

80% think foreigners should adapt to the lifestyle of Austrians.

49% of Austrians think that foreigners should be sent back to their countries of origin in tough economic times, to prevent Austrians from losing their job.

40% think the most important thing children have to learn is obedience.

27% think that where there is strong authority there's also justice.

20% want a "strong leader personality".

6% want the Military to rule the country.

Probably going to buy that book to read more about it, 1500 adult Austrians were questioned in each of the 3 years.

"lol" isn't what comes to mind when I see that.

How do you know Steger ?

BTW, he's 65 now. I was somehow shocked that Strache would consider the "liberal" Steger, who was axed by Jörg Haider in the 1986 FPÖ leadership election, as a Presidential candidate for the FPÖ. I'd think Barbara Rosenkranz (housewife with 10 children of Germanic names and married to a Nazi) would be far better fitting for them ...

I only know him as the one Haider axed (and, I suppose, the last left-liberal left in the FPÖ).

Pretty impressive, considering that Austria is now 61-36 center-right ...

Please don't say that. The ÖVP is the only center-right party.

Perhaps "right of center" should be used instead of center-right.  Or perhaps "right" would cover both center-right and far right.

"Right" works just fine.

Why shouldn't the South Tyrol be granted self-determination?

How will the BZÖ respond? Is it an irrelevant joke in Vorarlberg?

Why are the Greens so strong compared to the SPÖ in Vorarlberg?

Previously, ÖVP as well as FPÖ and BZÖ have said they will each run a candidate on their own, but with Pröll out the parties may back a united Center-Right candidate.

Please don't do this. The FPÖ and BZÖ aren't center-right in any sense.

Is the BZÖ relevant without Haider?

I'm prepared to see Austria give a higher vote to the Nazi than Germany ever did.
