Christian Stocker voted the federal party chairman: People's Party looks ahead!

Wiener Neustadt, Österreich - This day, March 29, 2025, the Federal Party Congress of the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) took place in Wiener Neustadt. As part of this important event, Christian Stocker was elected official federal party chairman. This decision reflects the successful work that has been done in the past few weeks and marks another step in a challenging phase for the party.

Christian Stocker, who previously worked as the managing federal party chairman and general secretary of the ÖVP, now takes on the leadership role. State party chairman Karl Mahrer repeatedly emphasized the calm and level -headed Art Stockers, who made him a "chancellor for everyone". Mahrer emphasized that the People's Party stands for responsibility, stability and cohesion, especially in difficult times.

The choice of Stocker is not only an internal matter of the ÖVP, but also has an impact on the entire Austrian politics. In his speech, Mahrer demanded that Vienna "wake up and go" to lead important issues such as a strong business location, regulated migration and a functioning health system. Stocker is associated with the aspects of security, economic upswing and social cohesion.

The ÖVP has a long and eventful story that goes back to the early 1890s when the Christian Social Party was founded. After numerous political restructuring and the establishment of the ÖVP on April 17, 1945 in Vienna, the party passed various challenges over the decades. In recent years, the ÖVP has been faced with loss of votes and internal crises, but was able to defend leading offices and form a triple coalition with the SPÖ and Neos after the coalition negotiations with the FPÖ failed.

The choice of Christian Stockers as the federal party chairman represents a glimmer of hope for the future of the ÖVP. In the conviction of redefining their own role in politics, the party will continue to endeavor to address the challenges of the present and future, and rely on a foundation for responsibility, stability and cohesion. The next steps of the new leadership are eagerly awaited.
