Politicians under fire: Destruction of election advertising in Herzogenburg!

But that's not all, just a few kilometers away, his personal vehicle was deliberately attacked with color. These incidents were documented in detail

politics in the crossfire

Artner condemns these property damage sharply and emphasizes that such acts are "unacceptable". "Democracy lives from the exchange of arguments, not from destruction," said the mayor. The FPÖ Herzogenburg also shares this point of view, which also sharply condemned such attacks on the political argument and emphasizes that they have no place in a democracy. Despite the negative experiences, Artner receives many positive feedback from citizens who support him in his work and strive for solutions to the tense situation.

In parallel to these incidents, Mayor Artner started with an initiative in which he would like to catch up with the opinions and ideas of the citizens. Under the motto "Your mayor wants to know - talk to them", he distributes a questionnaire to measure the satisfaction of the municipal citizens in areas such as administration, leisure and education and to receive concrete suggestions for improvement. This survey runs until mid -July. The results are to be released in autumn 2024 and aim to strengthen social interaction, such as meinbezirk.at reported.
