Austria: Van der Bellen-Hofer, photofinish on December 4
After Trump and Brexit pollsters refrain from predictions
19 November, 12:43After Brexit and after the Trump victory in the US, the outcome is more uncertain than ever, and will be a photo finish.
Long pollsters abstain from any forecast, since the two candidates are divided in only 1 to 2%. Certainly votes by correspondence will be decisive this time. The fact that the number of Austrians abroad, which required a card, is increased by one third, could encourage Van der Bellen. To recover 31,000 votes that divide him from the green, Hofer moderated the tone and explicitly addresses the Catholic electorate. (ANSA).
