Right Wing Parties Gain Power In Austria
“A total of 183 parliamentary seats were up for grabs. If preliminary results are confirmed, the right-wing Freedom Party will have 35 seats, up from 21 after the last elections in 2006. The Alliance for the Future of Austria, led by Joerg Haider, will have 21, up from seven. The center-left Social Democrats and the conservative People’s Party, which formed the governing alliance that collapsed in July, both made their worst showing since the end of World War II.” [Link]
