Survey shock: FPÖ remains unchallenged, SPÖ passes past ÖVP!

In the current Lazarsfeld survey, the political landscape of Austria presents itself dynamically. The survey based on 2,000 respondents clearly shows the Freedom Party (FPÖ), followed by the Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) and the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP). Während die FPÖ mit 34 % dazu in der Lage ist, ihre Führungsposition zu behaupten, muss die ÖVP einen Rückgang auf 20 % hinnehmen, wie oe24.at reported.

The SPÖ, on the other hand, is stable at 21 %. Party leader Andreas Babler has the opportunity to expand the position of his party, while the ÖVP boss Christian Stocker, who is also a chancellor, can only record a slight increase of 1 %.

The survey also allows conclusions to be drawn about the future chancellor's question. FPÖ boss Herbert Kickl achieves the best placement with 25 %, followed by brare and podium, both of which only achieve 13 %. In a direct comparison to the last survey, Kickl can further expand his distance to his competitors. Neos boss Beate Meinl-Reisinger and Greens boss Werner Kogler are back with 8 % and 6 %, such as Exxpress.at added.

The FPÖ had to accept a slight decline by one percentage point compared to the advance, but could win the next National Council elections on Sunday. The loss is also shown in the historical context, since the FPÖ had reached a maximum of 38 % in December 2022.

changes in the political climate

The NEOS, which were the only traffic light party, show a positive development with 11 %, while the Greens easily added 10 %. The current trend for the National Council election shows the following picture: FPÖ leads with 33.4 %, followed by SPÖ with 21.2 % and ÖVP with 21.4 %, confirming that the overall political situation of the government parties has stabilized at 55.2 %, as Politpro.eu emphasizes.

The next National Council election is scheduled for 2029, which gives political actors time to refine their strategies and programs. In view of the 4%hurdle for moving into parliament, the strategic orientation for the parties remains crucial. Currently, the left -wing parties with 57 MPs are less represented than the right -wing parties who represent 108 MPs.
