The first and for now the last mood test – Diepresse.com
The Vienna election is the first big choice since government formation-and probably the last one for at least two years. What does that mean for federal politics? And how do Christian Stocker & Co. affect federal politics the mood in Vienna, conversely?
As is well known, Vienna is different. How much was observed in the early morning of Maundy Thursday. The former climate minister and future Green Federal Party leader, Leonore Gewessler, which is not undisputed nationwide, stands in front of the Volksoper U6 station and distributes flyers. Not alone, of course, but on the side of the green top candidate for Vienna, Judith Pühringer, and her team. While Gewessler is particularly considered an absolute irritable figure in the turquoise and blue -dominated areas of Austria, here between the Green 18th district and the red ninth district, it is well busy shaking hands and accepting congratulations. For example for the fact that they once for the EU-Menaturation agreed. Or now get to the top of the Greens. Today she uses the awareness turbo that the reign has brought her to ask the passers -by for a voice for her less well -known companion and the Viennese Greens.
Gewessler is not the only federal politician on a Viennese campaign tour. For example, on Tuesday you could see how an incumbent foreign minister went on a climbing tour in the third district – despite the bad weather and accordingly manageable. In addition to Beate Meinl-Reisinger, Vienna’s Vice Mayor, Bettina Emmerling, and Neos parliamentary club boss Yannick Shetty came. The occasion: The NEOs believe that the flakturm in the arenberg park should be « from the concrete block to the High Garden », with a green roof, café. And just a climbing wall that was still temporary. The Vice Chancellor also tours the municipal council election campaign, SPÖ boss Andreas Babler distributed campaign gifts at the Yppenplatz in Ottakring or shaked hands on the carriage market in Währing, he played basketball in the Alois Drasch-Park and distributed chocolate buns with the children’s friends. Even Herbert Kickl, if only with a narrow-gauge program, strikes in the Viennese election campaign-although the relationship with the Vienna Freiheitlich boss, Dominik Nepp, should be difficult. The FPÖ federal manager appeared at the start of the campaign and comes again at the end.
