Curious debate
Election advertising in the parents’ association? Uproar over posting
A post with ÖVP mandataries is causing a stir in Pielachtal. It was allegedly published on the WhatsApp channel of the parents' association of the new secondary school.
When the polls are called on Sunday, the sometimes intrusive canvassing for votes comes to an end. Sometimes boundaries are crossed - as is allegedly the case in Hofstetten-Grünau in the Pielach Valley. According to the accusation, the WhatsApp group of the parents' association of the new secondary school was used to promote the ÖVP with a video link of the candidates. "A message like that in a school group is more than questionable," parents are annoyed.
Incorrectly saved
ÖVP local leader Arthur Rasch was surprised when asked by "Krone": "We don't do election advertising in schools or kindergartens." The answer came promptly: the post was actually made by an ÖVP local councillor. However, it had probably been saved by parents on their cell phones due to their activity as a "parents' association". "It was a private posting. The accusations are therefore irrelevant," said Rasch.
