Second term of office
Karl Stoss re-elected as IOC member
The current IOC President Thomas Bach and a further 14 people around ÖOC head Karl Stoss were unanimously re-elected as members of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for a further eight years on Wednesday.
All 93 votes cast at the session in Paris were in favor of the 15 members who were put to the vote together.
Second term of office for Stoss
Bach has been an IOC member since 1991; the German was elected President in 2013 and re-elected in 2021 until 2025. Stoss is entering his second term of office; the 67-year-old from Vorarlberg has been a member of the committee since 2016. He is delighted with the re-election, the trust and the opportunity to "continue to personally advocate for Austrian Olympic issues", said the 67-year-old from Vorarlberg.
Eight new IOC members were also elected, including Johan Eliasch. However, the controversial FIS President only received 64 out of a possible 92 votes, with 11 abstentions and 17 votes against.
