Johanna Jachs loses National Council mandate despite 4611 preferred votes

The political changes in Freistadt bring significant news: Johanna Jachs from the ÖVP lost their mandate in the National Council, despite a considerable number of 4611 votes. The 32-year-old lawyer, who has been a member of Parliament since November 9, 2017, regrettably commented on the outcome of the election. "Unfortunately, over 4,600 preferred votes were not enough for a previous line and thus entering the National Council," she told the Tips newspaper. Nevertheless, she thanked all of her voters and promised to continue to treat the trust that has been placed in them.

The loss of the mandate is disappointing, but Jachs leaves open that she is hoping for a return to parliament. If a place in the National Council is released after the government formation, it could possibly move in again. It is a political move that shows that there is always a chance of comebacks for lost positions.

The new compilation of the National Council

The constituent meeting of the newly composed National Council is already on October 24th. In this session, the Freistadt district of Harald Schuh, an FPÖ politician and city council from the region, is represented. These developments make it clear that the political landscape in Freistadt and beyond can change quickly.

The situation around Johanna Jachs is an example of how election results can affect political reality and emphasizes the importance of preferred votes in the electoral systems. For them, hope for a return to parliament remains life -supporting, while at the same time it has to adapt to the new reality that goes hand in hand with its deselection.
