Local council elections in St. Pölten 1919 to 2016

In the 16 elections so far in the 2nd Republic, 19 parties and lists competed in the city of St. Pölten. In the first two years only the Socialist Party of Austria (SPÖ), the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) and the Communist Party of Austria (KPÖ ) competed , however, in 1950 as the left bloc (LB) and in 1955 as the constituency of the Austrian People's Opposition (VO). The Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) ran for the first time in 1960. For the next few years the campaigning parties were those four, only in 1986 did a fifth party join with the Green Alternative Citizens' List (GABL). However, all St. Pölten Greens distanced themselves from this list, which was founded by an ex-FPÖ municipal council. These appeared as the Green Alternative St. Pölten (GAS) for the first time in 1991, and from 1996 as Die Grünen - Die Grüne Alternative (Greens). From 1991 the SPÖ took up the position of the Social Democratic Party of Austria , and in 1996 and 1997 the Liberal Forum (LiF) also made it into the municipal council.

Shortly after the 2001 election, the three FPÖ councilors left the party and founded the List For St. Pölten (FSP). In the subsequent election, this entered the list of Hermann Nonner (Nonner), in 2011 Nonner was again the top candidate of the FPÖ. In 2016, Nonner joined BLÜH as second on the list.

All other parties and lists have so far failed to be represented in the municipal council. In 2001 the Otto Schwarz list (LOS), in 2006 the Justice Party Austria (GPÖ) and the Mehmet Isik list (ISIK) failed to move in. In the 2011 election , the Citizens 'List Für St. Pölten (FSP), the independent citizens' platform Wir für St. Pölten (WIR) and the Christian Party of Austria (CPÖ) failed . In the 2016 election , NEOS - Das Neue Österreich (NEOS), the non-partisan citizens' list of St. Pölten (BLÜH) and the Kühnen.jetzt (now) did not make it into the municipal council.
