Overview
- An IFDD survey for Kronen Zeitung shows the FPÖ at 27% in Vienna, nudging ahead of the SPÖ at 26% in a voting scenario for Austria’s National Council.
- A separate IFDD test for a Vienna city election finds the SPÖ leading with 37%, with the FPÖ at 25%, the Greens at 16%, NEOS at 10%, and the ÖVP at 8%.
- Across Austria, recent polls place the FPÖ around 34% to 37%, ahead of the ÖVP near 20% to 23% and the SPÖ near 17% to 20%.
- FPÖ figures amplified the Vienna result on social media as a sign of a broader shift, while SPÖ leader Andreas Babler gave no comment and Mayor Michael Ludwig said there is no election now.
- Despite FPÖ gains, the governing ÖVP–SPÖ–NEOS alliance formed in March 2025 would still draw more combined support, and the next National Council election is scheduled for November 2028.
