Poor Slovenes.

84 of 119 cities counted in Salzburg:

ÖVP: 39.8%
SPÖ: 38.1%
FPÖ: 13.3%
Greens: 5.2%
BZÖ: 3.5%

[Tender Branson]

90 of 119 cities counted in Salzburg and the SPÖ overtakes the ÖVP:

SPÖ: 39.4%
ÖVP: 38.5%
FPÖ: 13.3%
Greens: 5.3%
BZÖ: 3.5%

Mostly bigger, urban cities (incl. Salzburg-City, Zell am See and Saalfelden) still remaining. SPÖ has clearly won due to the SPÖ-leaning of these cities.

Where are you getting those numbers?

http://www.salzburg.gv.at/20003stat/wahlen/ltw/index.htm sez:

SPÖ: 39.6%
ÖVP: 36.4%
FPÖ: 13.1%
Greens: 7.1%
BZÖ: 3.7%

Carinthia is taking a long time. Not surprising, since it's a crap backwards state.

news.at is a bit more progressive in updating:

Ah, my bad:

On the Gov. page, you need to click on "Tabellen Land/Bezirke" to get the actual numbers. The one's you have posted are the exit poll numbers.

That's why I said that Slovenia should annex Carinthia. Imagine the fun !

Now it's the Secretary of the Salzburg State ÖVP who just announced that his party could enter a coalition with the FPÖ ...

Anybody know a place where I can find a labelled map of Carinthian and Salzburg municipalities?

Yes, at the Salzburg GIS for example:

http://www.salzburg.gv.at/landkarten.htm

But it's in German and you would need to change some values to include City names ...

So far, I can only provide a blank map of Austrian cities:

Looks like the fascists will have a majority of seats in Carinthia. What a damn awful sh**thole state.

Gemeindegrenzen and Gemeindenamen.

Turning off Hintergrund will also cut out a lot of work for you.
