Well... polls in Austria are always way off in current years. Really way off.
ÖVP is ahead, that seems to be quite possible. The reason for that is them taking lots of FPÖ stances. You heard about our forbidding the covering of the face? That's an attempt to weaken FPÖ by taking their anti-muslim stance. Which, again, might just turn things around in favor of ÖVP, but I do not consider that a given.
We have an untranslateable saying that means people rather go to the blacksmith than the blacksmithling. I do not know if that's the right diminutive as you don't seem to have a general rule about that, but you get what the saying says.
