Lower Austria re-elects its state parliament. That’s what Salzburg’s top candidates say about the first projection: Neos see the result as an order to mobilize against the FPÖ in Salzburg. The FPÖ now thinks “everything is possible” for the elections in Salzburg.

“Good sign for Neos”

Neos: FPÖ cannot be an option in Salzburg

She speaks of “worryingly strong growth in the FPÖ”: “Your hypocrisy in supporting the citizens makes me angry,” said Klambauer in a broadcast. “The lack of demarcation between the big/old parties – for purely toxic tactics – is partly responsible for this result. That’s why I see my mandate to appeal to the ÖVP and SPÖ in Salzburg that the FPÖ cannot be an option.”

FPÖ: Everything is possible in Salzburg now

Naturally different, see the die Salzburg Freedom Party: “The supremacy of the ÖVP is crumbling. We Liberals are on the way to becoming a real and better people’s party. A party for the people,” summarizes Salzburgs Free state party leader Marlene Svazek the result of the Liberals in Lower Austria together. “Everything is now possible in Salzburg.”

“SPÖ is a caprice party”

For her part, Svazek steps in the direction of the SPÖ: “The catastrophic performance of social democracy comes as little surprise to us. No one knows what’s behind a cross in Social Democracy, both at federal and state level. Depending on the weather, the comrades have to decide quickly every day whether they are more on the Doskozil line or not more on the Rendi-Wagner line,” says Svazek.

“The revelations about the ÖVP media manipulation were a unique showcase for the degenerate, black power monopoly in Lower Austria. These nodes are now slowly being separated, state by state. What actually happened today in Lower Austria after Tyrol is just the beginning of a movement.”
