Here comes AUXIT: Austrian election hinges on Brussels | World | News | Daily Express
THE AUSTRIAN presidential election looks to be decided by the country’s mixed views on the European Union (EU) - with the far-right, Eurosceptic candidate surging ahead.Y

The run-off vote in October will pit two highly contrasting candidates against each other once again, following an initial vote in April and a first, annulled run-off vote in May.

Former Greens leader Alexander Van der Bellen is running as an independent against Norbert Hofer, the candidate for the Freedom Party (FPO) - a Eurosceptic, anti-immigrant party that is gaining ground in the country. 
...Mr Hofer had received 51.9 per cent of the initial result, not counting absentee votes - a total that was described as a “political earthquake”.
