Austria to elect first nationalist leader in western Europe since ww2

Polls show Hofer winning by 3% in the head to head revote.

When Hofer wins, how will the rest of the West react? Will there be cries of Nazism?

The President is a representative figure without much political weight.

Doesn't matter, the victory will be very symbolic about where things are going.

Shut the fuck up, cuck.

Also the President has some powers on paper, just in the past he has not made use of them. Hofer might use them where others did not.

That's irrelevant, as is Austria or any other country. What matters is the precedent it sets.

3% don't seem to big difference. Still, I hope he'll win. Based Hofer.

Who knows what will happen?
I don;t think there's ever been an Austrian born determined politician with right wing views ascend to power while Germany is undergoing a crisis before

>can dissolve the current parliament
>can instate any person he deems appropriate as chancellor
>the chancellor could then dissolve the national council
How is that "without much political weight"?

They gonna cry like they cried when we elected PiS but gonna forget about it really fast, no worries man.

>When Hofer wins, how will the rest of the West react?
Massive fucking sanctions that choke the everloving shit out of the economy. 17 years ago it was just the same.

What was 17 years ago?

The socialists got #REKT in the elections and a right-wing government composed of the far-right Freedom Party and the centre-right People's party formed a coalition, causing the entire EU to put us under sanctions for... close to two years, IIRC.

"Sie werden sich wundern, was alles möglich ist"
Austria still has the democratic system of the Weimar republic. Hofer could literally go full Hitler

>When the postal vote will strike again

They can't do it again because that would just cause you to do an Austrix and join forces with Britain.

What if this was Merkel's plan all along?

At the time they also had unanimous support for sanctions, which is what you need in the EU. I don;t think countries like Poland or Hungary would be in favour of sanctions this time, which would make them politically impossible.

Britain hasn't triggered Article 50 yet. It would be the gamble of gambles.
If just France and Germany fuck with us we'd have trouble already. Assume, say, they black air traffic and inbound shipments. Shit would be fukken murder.

Well the EU will block his ascension. As they actually stated before the election was recalled.

Please save us Austria.

>When Hofer wins, how will the rest of the West react?

They won't react. Because your country doesn't matter.

They don't have the power to do that.

True, but I am not sure they would risk it, the EU is already on the verge of death.

So far-right sentiments are feeling good in Austria, am I right? What do austrians think about Hungarians? When I talked with them, they said for them Austria is "real Europe".

>True, but I am not sure they would risk it, the EU is already on the verge of death.
Fair point.
Most Austrians like Hungary even though the Media tends to rage against them.
>So far-right sentiments are feeling good in Austria, am I right?
Hm. Kind of. The current issue is raising up young right wingers that aren't just uneducated skin heads. Our judicial system has many people from the same organization Hofer belongs to, but other than that shit's still a bit too liberal.

Though that COULD be changed considering how short - by comparison to a life - a college education is.

We are working on it

They absolutely do, and they will if they can.

>Please save us Austria.
Pay reparations to Poland and we can make a merry four-way Poland-Hungary-Austria-Germany alliance.

SHART

Get ready Austria for IMF and EU to fuck up youre economy happens everytime a Eu country votes in conservatives

Hold on, I may be a burger but I remember this election a while back. Did they really scrap the results and go for another one?

Yes, there were irregularities in the voting process so they are holding a revote.

They don't have those powers though.

desu senpai if they didn't bullycide Poland went it elected PiS since Poland gets a lot of gibs from the EU, I'm not willing to assume that they'd bullycide Austria over electing Hofer.

That and Hofer is pretty kosher as a nationalist, at least to my understanding and also perception.

Intermarium of kebab removal WHEN?

Good job Austria.

>NIGr
you need to go back

ec.europa.eu/justice/effective-justice/rule-of-law/index_en.htm

They can block 'radical' parties if they consider them to be too far of a radical deviation from the norm of the constitution of that country. Which is, of course, loosely defined.

At the VERY least they will make life very difficult for the Austrians.

Don't doubt that these people hate you.

...

leftists will go the extra mile with voting fraud this time, they were nearly successful the first time they tried.

Why do so many countries have presidents that don't do anything or have any power? It seems ridiculous.

There were already a lot of tears here about FPÖ in the last election and very little was said about how the postal vote was rigged.

>muh checks and balances
>muh monarchy ptsd

That's how it goes here, and I'm guessing Europe is still paranoid after Hitler.

>That tan
Disgusting

They couldn't block the PiS yet so the EU has officially lost all power to do anything about right wing parties.

He's barely even a Nationalist. Plus he's a pro-Zionist cuck. Still better than anything we've seen though. Gods speed Östrichreich

That's silly. We do not have a president nor do we need one and you do not have a prime minister or chancellor or whatever.
Having both is absurd.

What makes him non-nationalistic?

He's not an ethnic nationalist. Civic nationalism is a sad excuse for a meme.

It is what it is aussie. All we can do now is hope one of their heads is relatively sane.

He wants to deport the Turks. He is pretty good.

Today in the west you can't win on an explicitly ethnic nationalist platform.
Better to pretend you're for civic nationalism, get elected and then pull a 180.

Wait so from what I gathered is that your country can be sanctioned if your people democratically elect someone who doesn't align with globalist leftist cocksuckery? Wtf I hate the west now.

It is just an economic version of the Brezhnev doctrine.

People who are thinking the Bundespräsident can do anything or has any political impact at all

>b-b-but it's a sign

A bigger question is will he actually remove kebab?

So many politicians promise to do so much, promise to save their nation, then they get in office and do sweet fuck-all.

Let's follow up and see what Hofnung does if and when he gets in office. Of course I hope for the best.

Godspeed, my Austrian brothers.

>not hating it back when they used your capital to pass a treaty rejected by 3 other EU members

Better late than never, but really.

Also, wait for the Nationalratswahlen next year you dumb fucks, if there is any chance something will change in Austria by elections, it's that and not the Bundespräsidentschaftswahlen

>They don't have the power to do that.
One rigged election later and you still believe that

The question is, can he actually deport them though?
I guess that's one way to look at it. I don't think he'll do a 180

He needs a friendly government to do it.

>Und das läuft dann wie ab?
Enlighten me please

Lefties just can't catch a break these days!

I know Hofer probably won legitimately last time and just got Jewed out of victory by leftoid fraudsters, but either way 3% is a bigger margin than he was expected last time.
What's changed in Australia?

Could dissolve the government and call for fresh parliamentary elections or threaten the existing government to make them do it or he would dissolve it. He would have that power on paper, only thing that stops this is conventions, but conventions exist to be broken.

I've already seen this episode

history always repeats itself
sometimes a bit faster than usual

The president chooses the prime minister.
With Hofer as the president he can deny the position of prime minister to everyone except the FPÖ no matter the election results.
And with that hes indirectly in total control of austria. VDB is planning to do the same as the president, he said that even if the FPÖ gains a majority in the prime minister election he wont give their candidate the position of prime minister
No to mention that by being in control of the military he can theoretically pull a coup d´etat (he wont tho)
"You will be suprised at whats possible!" - Hofers on the power of the President

Pretty much this Representation (he resides at Hofburg in Vienna, old seat of the Habsburgs - prestige + tourism) and control of the parliament. In theory, if a party or a coalition of parties tries to go Hitler he can put an end to it by "firing" the parliament or saying no to specific laws they want to implement. Every law only gets "suggested" by the Parliament and implemented via the President signing it.

In practice the president never makes use of this and just nods off everything presented to him by the parliament, as it would mean chaos in everday politics otherwise

The summer of happenings happened. You think stuff like Nice made us more progressive? While we have lügenpresse and strong leftists, I have the feeling that freedom of opinion is not as dead as in Germany. I feel that many people are disappointed in the performance of the coalition. They are continuing the 'no borders' policies although like 70 percent are against it. Even the progressives are sick of Islam.

Is this actually the original campaign poster?

Plz no Norbert. A retarded nigger could have come up with something better.

It's kind of funny how every media outlet ignores the fact that the elite rigged the election in order to not elect the far-right person.
This is why we should have a re-election a month or two later in EVERY election all over Europe.

it is 6 percent, as it is 53-47

Feeling the pressure, Angie?

>Civic nationalism is a sad excuse for a meme.
You cannot restore Austria without civic nationalism. Our borders have always/for the longest time included Slavs, Magyar and Germanics alike.
Unless you count 'White' as a single group, then sure.
They're constantly threatening to. Who knows though.

>You think stuff like Nice made us more progressive? While we have lügenpresse and strong leftists, I have the feeling that freedom of opinion is not as dead as in Germany.
We have the absence of the Springer Verlag to thank for that.

WHEN IS THE ELECTION

2nd of October

There is no Austrian nation without civic nationalism. Just as there would be no Switzerland and no Belgium.

It's impossible to be an ethnic Austrian nationalist simply because Austria isn't a nation from an ethnic standpoint.

this
Also most slavs and magyars behave civilized and integrate pretty well, so theres no reason to make them our enemy.

i swear if he loses to "everyone who loves Austria is shit" guy again, all hope is lost.

Austria has never been purely ethnic german-austrian.

So there can't be ethnic nationalism.

I don't know why it should be there in the first place.

Many if not most of us view Slowenians, Hungarians, Slovaks, the Czech etc. as our closest brothers and sisters.

The only Germany-germans we actually like in a sense that we can relate to them are the Bavarians.

This is a very concerning thing for me, since I am moving to Austria for education (please, no discussion of this, I am here for Sup Forums, not for interpals and funny happy time). I support nationalists, however, I disrespect so-called nationalists, that aim for things like EU-collapse (i.e. Brexit by Nigel Farage). I also hate refugees. Well, something like a typical Trump supporter, but for Europe.

Anyway, I have a question - how are European nationalists connected to Russia and to Putin? Googling some info is not that hard, direct and indirect loans from banks controlled by Russian authorities, pro-russian support and respect towards Putin from European nationalists.

But Russia sucks and Putin is a murderer.
Am I mistaken? Or most of those nationalist parties are just pawns to destabilize Europe, which is already heavily damaged by niggers/muslims?

>that aim for things like EU-collapse
EU is a cancer actively trying to destroy European civilisation and nations.

I was crushed that he lost due to fraud. Hope he wins and tells the EU to fuck off

.... and so let the voter fraud with mail ballots begin!

youtube.com/watch?v=bM2Ql3wOGcU

The EU is an abomination just like the USSR was - which is why many call it EU(SSR)

>that aim for things like EU-collapse
The issue is that the EU started out as one of the best trade associations in the world and then quickly granted itself additional powers.

This sort of thing cannot be respected from any stand point, even if you like the outcomes.

We share history and cultural heritage with our slavbros. That's why we appreciate them. Going to an eastern country is never a culture shock for us. We love share a love for beer and meat.

Will he win?

>tells the EU to fuck off

FPÖ is pro-EU right now but only for economic reasons. he doesn't count out the possibility of calling them out on bullshit and maybe even pressing for an EUxit if the EU fails. or so I've heard...

Doesn't need to be purely Germanjc, just something like "historical European Christian peoples of Austria" would suffice.

The further question is - how can people, who try to abolish EU(SSR) praise a bloody dictator Putin, whose aim is to create Russian USSR Sharia Empire 2.0? He is not caring for his own people, not at all!

But it unites Europe, especially in the academics field. People can easily work for foreign EU institutions at science facilities, culture-related things, like musicians, architects, designers have no borders.
We do call EU "Eвpocoвoк" sometimes too.
Why it can not be respected?

If anything I'm kind of annoyed at the Piefkenisierung of many dishes. Those bitches up north can't handle any flavour and are almost as bad as Americans when it comes to handling their coffee.

So, what exactly happened again? I remember a couple months ago there was a stink when die Grünen won ever so slightly over the FPÖ, and there were demands of a recount, but then silence thereafter.
Did you guys actually succeed in acquiring a revote/recount?

REMOVE KEBOB!

I remember reading that Austria has a decent sized Serbian population and that they're mostly voting for this guy. Is this true?
If so it's pretty sad that immigrants are the ones trying to save Austria, while Austrians are voting for the guy who said that it's stupid to be proud to be Austrian.

"irregularities" being voting stations run by mobs of antifa-ggots?

>But it unites Europe
It unites Europe in the aim of destroying Europe. Not exactly a good thing. Only positive about the EU is the economic free trade, but everything else should go.

Court ruled the election was illegitimate and it has to be revoted on.

Most immigrants vote VdB, Austrians vote Hofer.

I'm not sure what the official reasons they listed were.

The postal votes will prevent a right-wing president.
