The far-right Austrian presidential candidate Norbert Hofer’s campaign manager, Herbert Kickl, has conceded his candidate’s defeat to former Greens leader Alexander Van der Bellen, Reuters reports.
Kickl told the state broadcaster:
The bottom line is it didn’t quite work out. In this case the establishment - which pitched in once again to block, to stonewall and to prevent renewal - has won.
Also:
If confirmed, the margin of Van der Bellen’s forecast win over Hofer in Austria is a major surprise.
Polls in the run-up to the vote had the two candidates neck-and-neck, with several putting the far-right Freedom party’s Hofer ahead. But the first official results, released minutes ago, show the independent with 53.5% of the vote, with Hofer 46.4%.
Interior ministry officials have told the Associated Press that votes obviously continue to be counted and the percentages are therefore almost certain to vary, but the outcome is now unlikely to change.

“Green” parties usually are the same tired old leftist demagogues masquerading as people who “care about da erfs and stuffs”.
Welcome to FR.
Please explain how electing job killing socialist ideologues improves anything.
I think he looks a bit like Dan Quayle (when he was younger).
The globalists will not be denied.
Anyone that disagrees with the leftist media.
(And no, I'm not being sarcastic)
they’re not just lemmings, they’re psychotic. ever heard of any animal actively trying to end their own species. this is white leftists. they almost seem giddy in ending Christians and white ones in particular. very bizarre.
Seems to be a consensus that disagreeing with libersls makes you far-right.
That’s my suspicion as well.
So the Tyrannical International Socialists win in Austria.
Austria is a small country and probably a lot easier for the Globalists abroad ( like George Soros) to steal the election.
>Can anyone tell me what far-right actually means?
The MSM definition is anyone that is against clit-cutting, goat roping, pedophile islam and lazy illegals or those who work for a living and pay the taxes that support the aforementioned filth.
Please explain how their Green party is good.
Let me guess...
Modern up to date electronic voting?
A comment so stupid that I quit reading the thread in disgust. C’mon man, step it up a notch or two.
To the press, “the far right” is anyone they dislike. Socialists opposed to Muslim migration are “far right” to them.
The poster boy of the “far right” led the German National Socialist Workers’ Party - Adolph Hitler. I think the media objection may have been the word “National.”
Stalin murdered more people, starting earlier, but he was an INTERNATIONAL socialist, following Lenin and Marx. The New York Times denied his Ukrainian holocaust of 1931-2. For their efforts, they received the Pulitzer Prize.
The polls told me everything I need to know when they said Hillary was up by 9% in Utah. We did our job and cleaned her clock in Election 2016. The 27% that voted for her are a joke, they comprise the Salt Lake voters that kept Rocky Anderson as mayor and the Park City limousine liberals that deserve to get hit with a meteorite.
Why are people assuming “Far-Right” means the same thing there as it does here? None of it transfers over. They all gave up their guns over one little shooting anyway.
France in the last year has had Bataclan, Nice, and to a lesser extent Calais and regular day-day stuff in Paris and elsewhere.
exactly. this is the compost term. maybe our leftists can move there instead of their threat to move to Canada.
So the Austrians reply to the migrant flood by replacing their left-leaning president with a radical left winger. European Greens make Jill Stein look sane and are even worse than the ruling Social Democrats (i.e. Socialists).
This is what will happen in France too.

I don’t agree. France has suffered too much under Hollande. France will go right this time. Only question is how far right. Fillon or LePin.
