An "FPÖ community"

SPÖ bastions in the district of Bruck defy the blue wave

Enzersdorf an der Fischa goes sensationally to the FPÖ. Nevertheless, it will probably not be enough for a "blue" mayor. The SPÖ is ahead in many municipalities, the ÖVP is stable.

The election campaign in the district of Bruck an der Leitha also began on Sunday with Prellenkirchen. Heurigenwirt Gerhard Mölk annoyed the ÖVP, which continues to reign supreme (-8.56%), and ended up with 7.6% with his citizens' list. Soon afterwards it was also clear that the "youngest mayor in Austria", 24-year-old Johannes Gumprecht, would retain his majority in Hainburg.

However, there was a big bang in Enzersdorf an der Fischa. The Freedom Party came first, ahead of the Blacks and Reds, a "historic result", declared the party leadership. Whether Werner Herbert will become the new mayor, however, is still written in the stars.

Red bastions hold for the most part
There was widespread jubilation among the Social Democrats in the east. In Bad Deutsch-Altenburg, Klein-Neusiedl, Mannersdorf am Leithagebirge & Co. the place in the sun was not only held, but extended.

However, there was great trepidation in the district capital. In Bruck itself, SPÖ mayor Gerhard Weil lost the absolute: "We will invite all the parliamentary groups in the municipal council to talks - with the aim of forming a stable municipal government," Weil told "Krone".
