The Styrian People's Party has suffered an extremely painful election defeat. Governor Christopher Drexler is sticking to his "no" to working with the big election winner Herbert Kickl - and is not losing his optimism for the regional elections.

"Krone": Governor, how was the night after the bitter federal election defeat?
Christopher Drexler: Thank God I always have a good night's sleep. But Sunday was of course a very disappointing day. We didn't manage to start a race to catch up and reach first place.
