NEW:
mayor in Upper Austria tore up three (invalid) ballot papers since the number didn't add up
woman in Upper Austria wasn't allowed to vote since she used mail vote in the first election and was not on the registry of the ballot office (which is the fault of the office)
Head of Federal Voting Commission is a medium ranked member of Viennese SPÖ (Chairman of Währinger SPÖ) who endorsed leftist van der Bellen

>Is this big news in Austria or does no one really know about it? it is being reported
leftist newspapers try to play it down though. the ministry of interior is really embarrassed. General attorney for corruption is doing an investigation.
the decision whether to fight the outcome of the election lies with HC Strache.
