    No, Vienna will stay red, IMO it is most likely they will seek a coalition with the Greens.

    Theoretically, the ÖVP/FPÖ/Green/Neos could have enough seats, but the Greens wouldn't ally with the FPÖ, that is not going to happen because they are too openly fash.

    Edit: Btw, they are currently in a coalition in Vienna already, that is SPÖ/Greens.

      :soviet-hmm:

      if the greens are willing to ally with the conservative christian party, it doesnt sound unreasonable theyd tack seats on by pandering to the fash, but youd know better than me as to how viable that is for them politically.

      thanks for the info!

        That would be a complete PR disaster for them if they tried that, especially because there is no need for that.
        Ideologically they are a lot closer to the SPÖ anyways, they formed a coalition on a national level with the ÖVP only out of sheer pragmatism and lack of alternative partners.

        And just to add, there is still quite a difference in public perception when it comes to the ÖVP/FPÖ, because although they are on the same page on almost every issue the ÖVP is a lot better at disguising their intentions.
