A legislative election will be held in Austria on 29 September 2013.[1]
All 183 seats in the National Council will be filled, with MPs elected by party-list proportional representation. For this election, the SPÖ and ÖVP had proposed a reduction in the number of MPs from 183 to 165 as part of austerity measures, but despite overwhelming support from the Austrian populace,[2] the proposals failed to pass in parliament.[3]
The government is a grand coalition between Austria's two largest parties, the SPÖ and ÖVP, who rule with the SPÖ's Werner Faymann as Chancellor. Support for both governing parties has fallen marginally since the 2008 election. The FPÖ and BZÖ made significant gains in the previous election, but while the FPÖ gained support after the 2008 election, BZÖ shrank after taking a turn toward liberalism. Team Stronach, funded by Austrian-Canadian businessman Frank Stronach, has emerged as an anti-euro alternative. The Greens have solidified their position as the fourth-largest party in opinion polls.
