Sebastian Kurz hat die Wahl

Wahlbericht zu den Nationalratswahlen 2019

Die vorgezogene Wahl zum Nationalrat am 29. September 2019 in Österreich hat zwei Sieger: die Volkspartei mit Sebastian Kurz an der Spitze und die Grünen mit Werner Kogler. Die Verlierer stehen ebenfalls fest: die SPÖ mit Pamela Rendi-Wagner als Spitzenkandidatin und vor allem die FPÖ mit Norbert Hofer. Die Neos mit Beate Meinl-Reisinger konnten zulegen, sind aber die einzige Partei, die für eine neue Regierung nicht mehrheitsentscheidend sein wird. Der designierte Bundeskanzler Sebastian Kurz hat nun zwischen SPÖ, FPÖ oder Grüne zu entscheiden.
