Sebastian Kurz wins Austrian election months after his government collapsed, in a vote that saw antiestablishment populists suffer a significant decline
The party of former Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz won an election months after his government collapsed, a turnaround that in a rare development on Europe’s fractured political landscape saw antiestablishment populists suffer a significant decline.
Mr. Kurz’s conservative People’s Party took 38.4% of Sunday’s vote, according to the preliminary official results, his party’s best result in years and up more than six percentage points from its 2017 score. The nationalist Freedom Party slumped more than eight points, to 17.3%.
