SPÖ vs. FPÖ: Hergovich's explosive attacks on mayor spark a dispute!

The political landscape in Lower Austria is shaken again! In the election campaign for the municipal elections, the SPÖ sparked a heated debate. Matthias Zauner, the state manager of the Lower Austria People's Party, made it clear that the SPÖ State Councilor Sven Hergovich, with his recent statements against the mayors from his own party, causes confusion. Hergovich, who has recently been inactive, provocatively described the local chiefs as "uncontrolled local emperors", which causes excitement. Zauner criticized this sharply and reminded that the SPÖ places over 100 mayors that are defamed by Hergovich's statements.

But who is behind the mayors?

The People's Party confirmed its support for the affected local heads. Hergovich, who was previously considered inactive due to his missing ministerial ambitions, is now faced with violent resistance. This is done in a context in which the FPÖ repeatedly ranges against the mayors from the SPÖ. "Our People's Party stands behind the mayors and condemns such non-unreasonable attacks," said Zauner, while the SPÖ is trying to withstand the pressure of the so-called "black and blue wave" in the Region, such as noe.orf reported.

The coming weeks promise to become turbulent, while the political actors in Lower Austria vie for voting and increase the tensions within the SPÖ. It remains to be seen whether Hergovich can smooth the waves or whether the voters can be influenced by the internal conflicts of the SPÖ. The situation throws a bright light on the internal currents within the SPÖ and its reaction to the external political competition.
