[Hash]

Ah. Carinthia=Kärnten, correct?

Yes.

[Hash]

Villiers? Blech.

[Hash]

Any nationwide polls?

[Hash]

Gov. Gabriele Burgstaller (SPÖ), because - allthough she's done a brilliant job over the last 5 years - she's not ruled out a coalition with the fascist and xenophobic FPÖ.

Disgusting human trash. Anybody co-operating with xenophobes is trash.

[Hash]

BZO is collapsing because of the death of Haider?

Hardly. They're holding much better than I would have imagined.

[Hash]

3 Center-Right parties are below 55%

The FPÖ and BZÖ are centre-right?

[Hash]

Interesting official campaign logo of Carinthian FPÖ frontrunner Mario Canori:

Even the fascists like Obama. Damn.

[Hash]

Funny note from Wikipedia on the Salzburg elections: The BZÖ will contest the state election under its new chairman Robert Stark.[2]

Anyways. What is the current governing coalition in Carinthia? Isn't it BZO-SPO?

[Hash]

Carinthia=crap fail state.

[Hash]

Carinthia should be expelled from Austria.

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.

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

[Hash]

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 ...

Where do I click to indicate city border and names?

[Hash]

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

[Hash]

Why are some of those rural (?) mountain town so left-wing, especially that Red Belt of sorts running through the centre?

[Hash]

What's the hard-red place in the Pongau?

Zell, I'd bet. As I said, it's 86% Slovene.

IIRC, only majority Slovene town in Carinthia.

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.

Why was the SPÖ so strong in Carinthia in the first place?

[Hash]

So, are Josef and Erwin Pröll brothers[no qm on this computer]

[Hash]

FPÖ falling back slightly?

[Hash]

The SVP leans centre-right but it's a big tent party for the vast majority of Germans. The only people who vote for the left are Italians.
