List of Austrian members of the EU Parliament (2019-2024)
The list of Austrian members of the EU Parliament (2019-2024) lists all Austrian members of the 9th European Parliament after the European elections in Austria in 2019 .
history
A total of eighteen seats were available in the 2019 European elections in Austria . When the United Kingdom left the European Union on January 31, 2020 (the so-called “ Brexit ”), the number of mandates assigned to each member country changed. The number of Austrian seats increased by one to 19. The additional mandate fell to the Greens and went to Thomas Waitz .
The ÖVP led a preferential election campaign . In January 2019, a list of the ten first candidates for the subsequent nomination was presented: Othmar Karas (top candidate), Karoline Edtstadler (2nd place), Angelika Winzig (3), Simone Schmiedtbauer (4), Lukas Mandl (5), Wolfram Pirchner ( 6), Christian Sagartz (7), Barbara Thaler (8), Christian Zoll (9), Claudia Wolf-Schöffmann (10). Due to the preferential votes, Barbara Thaler from eighth and Alexander Bernhuber from eleventh place in the list were placed in front .
Harald Vilimsky (top candidate), Georg Mayer (2nd place), Petra Steger (3), Roman Haider (4), Vesna Schuster (5) and Elisabeth Dieringer-Granza (6) ran for the FPÖ . Heinz-Christian Strache ran for the FPÖ in 42nd place on the list and received more than the 33,000 preferential votes necessary for a direct mandate . On June 17, 2019, Strache announced that he would not accept the EU mandate. On June 21, 2019, it was announced that Petra Steger was also renouncing her mandate.
Candidates for the SPÖ were Andreas Schieder (top candidate), Evelyn Regner (2), Günther Sidl (3), Bettina Vollath (4), Hannes Heide (5), Julia Herr (6), Christian Dax (7), Stefanie Mösl (8 ) and Luca Kaiser (9). Originally, the son of the Carinthian Governor Peter Kaiser should have run for sixth place on the list.
Werner Kogler (1), Sarah Wiener (2), Monika Vana (3) and Thomas Waitz (4) ran for the Greens . On June 14, 2019, Werner Kogler, who received 70,821 preferential votes, announced that he would forego his EU mandate and instead run as the top candidate in the 2019 National Council election in Austria .
Due to Karoline Edtstadler's move to the Kurz II federal government , she left the EU Parliament on January 6, 2020, and Christian Sagartz took over her EU mandate . Angelika Winzig succeeded her as head of the ÖVP delegation .
