"Would wish for awesome, cool infrastructure": Barbara Urbanic (KPÖ) in the Wordrap for the Vienna Election
In the second part of the VIENNA.at series with the top candidates in the Vienna election, Barbara Urbanic is in the spotlight. The KPÖ top of the list discusses her goals for the election on April 27, talks about the most important campaign issue for her, and takes a look at her summer vacation this year.
"Can you still afford Vienna?", ask KPÖ and LINKS on posters. My answer to that is...
I can still afford Vienna because I am very lucky with the rental costs. But if, for example, electricity costs become more expensive for all of us this year, it will become significantly tighter.
The most important issue for me in the campaign is...
...that Vienna is a livable and affordable city for truly all people who live here.
My biggest political dream for Vienna includes...
It is important to me that basic services are provided, that truly all people in Vienna have access to good housing, healthcare, energy supply, and education. But beyond that, when it comes to dreaming, I would simply wish for really cool, awesome infrastructure. That means not just roads and public transport - that is extremely important - but in every district part a public health center, a cultural center, a public canteen where you can get cheap healthy food, beautiful, green streets where you like to spend time in public spaces.
On the evening before the election I will...
...probably hang out somewhere exhausted with other activists from the party and be very happy and positively surprised at how much we have achieved in the few weeks.
My election goal is...
...six percent in the municipal council election and to at least double our mandates in the districts - at the moment we have 23.
I prefer to celebrate an election victory in...
...the company of my party comrades, because it is a shared success.
In the summer after the election, I will go on vacation to...
It won't be a long vacation, I'm afraid. Quite a bit of my vacation time is taken up by the election campaign, but I believe a few days in Italy by the sea should definitely be possible.
The best viewpoint in Vienna is at...
...Cobenzl.
The most pleasant subway line in the city is...
...actually the S45.
The most beautiful coffee house in Vienna is...
...Advertisement: I believe, Café Goldegg.
