Austria – State election Burgenland

In Austria a local election was held on 30 May for the Land (state-level) council in Burgenland.

The official website of the Land has a nice table of results comparing the 2010 election and the previous election in 2005.

Social Democrats (SPÖ)
Christian Democratic People’s Party (ÖVP)
Freedom Party (FPÖ)
Grüne (Greens)
List Burgenland (LBL)

The bottom line is that nothing much changed. The Social Democrats, who have been doing badly generally, declined somewhat, but there were no major surprises.

In terms of seats, the SPÖ and the Greens each lost a seat. The FPÖ and the LBL each gained a seat.
