The initial results are as follows:
| SPÖ | 28.6% |
| ÖVP | 25.7% |
| FPÖ | 17.9% |
| BZÖ | 11.9% |
| Gr | 10.5% |
| LF | 1.9% |
What does this mean?
- Haider’s BZÖ has done remarkably better than anybody expected
- The two right wing parties (FPÖ and BZÖ) have easily out-performed the centre-right ÖVP and together have even more votes than the Social Democrats. It is likely that if there had been one right-wing party instead of two that that would have been the largest in Parliament.
The parliamentary seats would be roughly as follows:
| SPÖ | 55 |
| ÖVP | 50 |
| FPÖ | 35 |
| BZÖ | 23 |
| Gr | 20 |
That means that we’re looking either at another Grand Coalition (Social Democrats and People’s Party) or a right wing three-party coalition (People’s Party, Freedom Party, Alliance for Future Austria)
