First Projection and Forecast for the Vienna Election 2025

The SPÖ has clearly secured first place in the Vienna election on Sunday according to a first trend forecast at 5:00 PM by Foresight/Hajek on behalf of ORF/APA/Puls24/ATV, despite losses. According to this survey-based estimate, the SPÖ is expected to receive about 37 percent of the votes.

First Trend Forecast for the Vienna Election at 5:00 PM

Accordingly, the FPÖ takes second place with 23.5 percent, ahead of the Greens with 12.5 percent. The ÖVP plummets to 11.5 percent but is still ahead of the NEOS, who reach 8.5 percent. According to the first trend forecast, KPÖ/Links (4 percent) and the Team HC Strache (1.5 percent) are unlikely to enter the Vienna City Council.

The first projection for the Vienna election 2025 is expected from 6:00 PM.

According to this forecast, a coalition of SPÖ and NEOS would not have a majority of mandates. However, cooperation between SPÖ and ÖVP as well as between SPÖ and Greens would be possible. The SPÖ comes to 40 of the 100 mandates (-6), the FPÖ to 25 (+17), the Greens to 13 (-3), as does the ÖVP (-9). The NEOS gain one mandate and thus hold nine mandates. Accordingly, the previous coalition of SPÖ and NEOS would only come to 49 seats.

OGM Trend with Similar Result

The trend forecast by the opinion research institute OGM for Servus Nachrichten comes to a similar result as Foresight/Hajek. The SPÖ is also clearly first there with 37.5 percent. The Freedom Party triples and lands in second place with 22 percent. In the OGM trend forecast, the Greens take third place with slight losses (12.5 percent) ahead of the People's Party, which has to accept significant losses and only comes to 11 percent. The current coalition partner of the SPÖ, the NEOS, increases to 9.5 percent. The Team Strache (2.5 percent) and the alliance of KPÖ and Links (3.5 percent) miss entering the town hall according to OGM.

The trend forecast is created by the election researchers of Foresight and Peter Hajek. The experts conduct surveys independently and create a joint forecast on election Sunday, which is published by ORF, APA, and Puls 24. This will provide an estimate of the election result in percentage as well as for the distribution of mandates. Figures are available for all seven parties running city-wide in Vienna (SPÖ, ÖVP, Greens, NEOS, FPÖ, KPÖ, HC). In total, about 3,600 interviews with eligible voters in Vienna are conducted for the trend forecast - about 2,000 online and 1,600 by phone. The trend forecast will have a margin of fluctuation of a maximum of +/-3.0 percentage points.
