Austria Holds Legislative Elections

VIENNA, AUSTRIA - OCTOBER 15: Sebastian Kurz (R), Austrian Foreign Minister and leader of the conservative Austrian People's Party (OeVP), speaks to supporters after initial results give the party a first place finish and 31.4% of the vote in Austrian parliamentary elections on October 15, 2017 in Vienna, Austria. The OevP will seek a coalition partner to create a new government, though its current partner, the Austrian Social Democrats (SPOe) of Chancellor Christian Kern, have indicated they will not seek to be in a coalition again with the OeVP following the election. This opens the door for the right-wing Austria Freedom Party (FPOe), which has run on a "fairness for Austrians" campaign with anti-immigrants, anti-refugees and anti-Islam tones, and finshed in third place, to be a possible coalition member.
