Vienna FPÖ Finalized Club Chairman and City Councilors

The Vienna FPÖ has now also finalized its personnel decisions following the Vienna election: Maximilian Krauss will continue to serve as club chairman in the town hall. Party leader Dominik Nepp - who previously held the only city council position for the Blues - as well as Ulrike Nittmann and Stefan Berger have been nominated as non-executive city councilors. The party announced this to the APA.

FPÖ with three seats in the city senate

The FPÖ is now entitled to three seats in the future 13-member city senate, as they were able to increase their vote share to around 20 percent after the 2020 election defeat in the April ballot. In Vienna, opposition parties also have city councilors, but they are not assigned a department. The swearing-in of the city senate members will take place on June 10 at the inaugural meeting of the municipal council.

SPÖ committees meet

The SPÖ will also decide on Wednesday whom they will send to the government. The party committees will meet in the coming hours. The presentation will take place in the afternoon. The Reds will continue to have six city councilors. The position of finance city councilor must be filled, as the previous department head Peter Hanke has moved to the federal government. Currently, finance director Christoph Maschek is temporarily holding the position.
