In Austria they are right-leaning folks:
In the last union elections for state employees in 2009, the Police members voted:
42.6% FSG (Fraction of Socialist Unionists, SPÖ-allied)
37.7% FCG (Fraction of Christian Unionists, ÖVP-allied)
19.7% AUF (Action Group of Independents and Liberty, FPÖ-allied)
In the last union elections for state employees in 2009, the corrections officers in jails voted:
39.4% FCG (Fraction of Christian Unionists, ÖVP-allied)
32.2% FSG (Fraction of Socialist Unionists, SPÖ-allied)
26.7% AUF (Action Group of Independents and Freedom, FPÖ-allied)
About 32.000 members from the police and correction officers were able to vote, turnout was about 90%.
...
You have to understand though that out of the 9000 people in Austrian jails, about half are foreigners. And in Austria's population, about 11% are foreigners. So, foreigners are WAY overrepresented in the jails. And as we have seen in the parliamentary elections in 2008, where many foreigners live, people vote FPÖ.
