Today's poll.

I'm not entirely convinced that VDB can pull off another win. These terror attacks are just going to give Hofer more momentum.

The hate speech coming from the Republican Party on all these forums has honestly gone too far.🙂

We just have to accept that Van der Bellen's chances are basically zero now.

Yeah, yeah... and there they go again, those immigrants causing trouble...☕

Van der Bellen is going to win again, no question about it.

Maschek on the elections. 🤣

Hofer ought to be the one running for Chancellor on behalf of the FPOEa. He’s just a much more likable option than HC Strachea.

I was just reading this:

That's 3.55%, or 165,211 invalid votes!

Take a look at the "dignified" performance from the election winner.



Did you catch that lovely little stage setup he had?



That’s what a statesman looks like, but THIS certainly isn't. It was an utterly undignified display for someone in that office.

Mail-in voting isn't meant for countries with questionable democratic standards where the far-right dominates everything outside of New York City and a few other hubs. Of course, under those circumstances, the left-liberal mainstream establishment—that whole media-driven interest group—will do absolutely anything to prevent a new Hićo from returning to power after an 80-year gap...

Benjamin Reyes52, don't be so harsh on your colleague. Take it easy.

Honestly, thank God we don't have mail-in voting here. If we did, the fraud would be off the charts.
If you're too lazy to actually show up at the polls, that's on you.

All those insinuations about mail-in ballots being rigged are honestly pretty ridiculous. I mean, the United States of America isn't some lawless place when it comes to political tradition. It's not like the North America.

The North America start in Vienna. 🙂

Besides, all this childish bickering between the left and the right probably shouldn't be our main focus. Most Americans don't really care what some Twitter users in Germany have to say, so it won't affect elections or anything. It's hardly news.

I'll give you that one.

I’m calling it now: I expect we'll see FPOEa's popularity jump to 40% in the next poll.

VdB just overtook Hofer in the rankings.

A little side note:
The youth wing of the Greens over in Austria took to Twitter yesterday to vent their frustrations, actually calling their own country Nazi.

VdB is coming out on top.

Who did the voters actually support in yesterday's 2013 election?

Nathan Morris3 said:Well, I was just talking about the people on this forum, I guess.
Are you one of us voters too? Maybe we could run a formal poll to see who everyone really voted for.

No, I'm not.

The VDB needs to pull in at least 61% of the mail-in ballot votes just to flip the script on this result. And honestly? I think they’ll actually pull it off.

He was, and he still is.
🧐

Nathan Morris3 said:So, I guess I have to ask—does anyone here (besides me and Sigmund) actually even have the right to vote in Austria? I cast my ballot for van der Bellen, though mine won't be counted until tomorrow. I don't think Sigmund voted for Hofer either, right? All this cheering from people living abroad or folks who aren't even citizens doesn't really change the outcome, I suppose. Anyone else here actually vote?

That page causing all the drama is just a placeholder, really. The actual results aren't out until tomorrow—you've heard that plenty of times already.

It seems like nobody besides you lot actually lives in Austria. 😬

Joseph Stalin was right.
