New Vienna state elections poll:

43% SPÖ
27% FPÖ
14% Greens
13% ÖVP
  3% Others

Considering that the FPÖ polled about 20% right before of the 2010 elections and eventually got 26% in the actual election, I would say that the FPÖ is close to 30% in Vienna right now.

The governor of Vorarlberg, Herbert Sausgruber (ÖVP), announced today that he will retire in December.

He was the governor of Vorarlberg since 1997.

Markus Wallner will follow him as governor until the next state election in 2014 or probably much longer, because the ÖVP has a lock on the state.



Sausgruber on the left, Wallner in the middle.

There's also a new Market poll out today for the "Standard" newspaper, with similar results:

27% FPÖ
27% SPÖ
24% ÖVP
13% Greens
  5% BZÖ
  4% Others

History has shown that the FPÖ would win the election in the event of a tie, because the FPÖ used to underpoll in earlier elections relative to the election day result.

Is my translation right, and that earlier table showing ÖVP leading as the party for the bourgeois/elderly interests and who'd be best for the Viennese economy?

Correct.

And the FPÖ is seen as:

* more important in 5 years than now
* understands the concerns of Vienna residents
* is the party of young people
* can solve the problems of integrating foreigners
* works to achieve low taxes and fees
* has good ideas for Vienna
* is helping the weak and the poor
* is a bourgeois party

And the Greens are seen as:

* is the party of young people
* works to achieve low taxes and fees
* has solutions for Vienna traffic problems
* has good ideas for Vienna
* stands for a modern, liberal world city
* is helping the weak and the poor
* more important in 5 years than now
* can solve the problems of integrating foreigners
* can work together with other parties in a good manner

Because the BZÖ and ÖVP are losing and European and Austrian government politicians have nothing better to do than transferring billions of €s to incompetent southern EU members ?

In other news, FPÖ-leader H.C. Strache is in trouble again, as NEWS reports some of his (young) staffers at campaign rallies are Neo-Nazis:




Two of the 3 staffers have now been sentenced to 14 and 28 months in jail because of re-enactment of National Socialism. The 3rd guy in the picture is already dead.

Finally, a new poll by (the best pollster) OGM for Kurier newspaper:



Direct vote for Chancellor:



http://kurier.at/nachrichten/4318198.php

The article also reveals that young Austrian voters (those under 30 years of age) prefer Strache as Chancellor by a wide margin, followed by Green leader Eva Glawischnig.

The young voters are also different when it comes to the next preferred coalition. 23% of young voters, a plurality, want FPÖ-ÖVP - but among all voters, a SPÖVP coalition leads with 29%.

Polls are pretty stable now, except for the ÖVP - which is bouncing around between 22% and 25% - according to the new Gallup poll for Ö24 that was released today:



The release also says that the FPÖ is now first with 17% among die-hard base voters (those voters that have a unchangeable voting intention).
