I rule out voting for the FPÖ (too far-right and recently anti-semitic again) and their splinter, the FLÖ (with Barbara Rosenkranz, they have one leading candidate who once took a week to confirm the existence of gas chambers in WW2).

I also rule out voting for the remnant-Greens this time (too naive on immigration and immigrant crime). Besides, I voted for President Van der Bellen twice last year.

And the KPÖ+ is kinda too far left for my taste (even though they do a good job in the city of Graz).

You already ruled out voting for the best option.

Funny how much these two posters would radically disagree as to which party constitutes "the best option". Wink

The last option ("Do not vote") is actually not an option for me.

I always vote ...

NEOS, I suppose, considering your recent post about being a centrist - which I still don't get.

What do you mean ?

Overall, if we look at 50 different issues ... then I'm centrist, or lean slightly to the left.

... And you supported Sanders, and single-payer, and Corbyn's Labour?

You see, he also hates immigrants, so it evens out to centrist.

Sanders yes.

Of course I'm supporting single-payer. It's what we have here in Austria and it works extremely well. The single-payer system usually runs surpluses here, has virtually no debt and provides good services.

Corbyn no, Labour yes.

I do not hate immigrants. I prefer a small level of immigration per year, such as 0.1% or 0.2% each year - but not the current high level of population growth (1% annually), mostly from uneducated, backwards parts of the world such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia etc.

Strong immigration from these parts just brings all kinds of problems with it, ranging from low-level crime to rapes, murders and terror. It also changes or impacts Austrian society, if we let in hundreds of thousands of anti-semitic, misogynistic and religious extremists into our country who put Islam above the Austrian rule of law. Most of them are uneducated analphabets too.

It's better if we only let in skilled immigrants (not from Africa and the Middle-East).

SPÖ. Christian Kern is a good chancellor and actually one of my favorite sitting leaders around the world. If you Austrians don't want him, please send him to Germany.

This. ÖVP is the second best option, Pilz the third best.

If you're seriously considering allowing Atlas to influence the way you vote IRL, you're truly f**ked up.
