KPÖ Could Be Knocking on Your Door Before the Vienna Election
The KPÖ, which is running in the Vienna election on April 27 as the KPÖ and LINKS list, officially launched its campaign on Saturday morning. "The SPÖ will cross the finish line as the election winner. It is important that after the election there is a bothersome social opposition in the city council that keeps an eye on the city government and consistently advocates for cheaper rents and an affordable life," said top candidate Barbara Urbanic.
KPÖ and LINKS Aim for More District Councillors
Around 200 activists set off to their districts after the rally at Reumannplatz to engage with Viennese residents at information stands and through door-to-door conversations, according to a press release. "The goal for this campaign is to knock on 30,000 apartment doors," to discuss with Viennese residents their life realities, the problems of city politics "and how KPÖ and LINKS will do better." KPÖ and LINKS aim to double the number of district councillors. Since the last election, the alliance is already represented with 23 of them in 15 different districts, the press release stated.
Energy Bill "Reduced" Before Vienna Election
During the rally, the top candidates symbolically "reduced" an energy bill. KPÖ and LINKS are entering the election campaign with the demand for a basic energy security. "Wien Energie belongs to the city of Vienna. It is time for a company that belongs to the Viennese to work for us, instead of making record profits at our expense," said third on the list, Anna Svec.
