The constituency includes the three Viennese districts 10.  Favoriten , 11. Simmering and 12. Meidling . In the 2013 National Council election , 228,791 people were eligible to vote in the Vienna South regional constituency, with the Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) emerging as the strongest party with 38.5%. In addition to the SPÖ, which achieved two basic mandates, the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) won one of the three basic mandates in the election.

history

After the end of the state of Austria-Hungary , seven constituencies were created for the area of ​​Vienna with the electoral code of 1918 for the election of the constituent national assembly, whereby the constituencies Vienna Southeast (constituency 5) and Vienna Southwest (constituency 6) were created for the area of ​​today's regional constituency which, however, also included other districts. After Vienna gained its independence from Lower Austria in the early 1920s and areas such as South Tyrol and South Bohemia were finally ceded by Austria to the successor states, the constituencies were reorganized in 1923. However, this reorganization did not affect the existing constituencies of Vienna. After the electoral code of 1923 was overruled by the Austro-Fascist government in 1934, the original division of the constituencies after the Second World War was largely reintroduced with the constitutional law of October 19, 1945, although the borders of the constituencies were aligned with the changed borders of Vienna . With the National Council electoral code in 1971, there was a far-reaching reform of the constituencies, which reduced the number of constituencies in Austria to just nine. As a result, there was only one constituency for the federal state of Vienna (now constituency 9). When the National Council electoral code came into force in 1992, the Austrian federal territory was finally subdivided into 43 regional constituencies and a third investigation procedure was introduced, with the districts of Favoriten, Simmering and Meidling being combined to form the Vienna Süd regional constituency (constituency 9D). In 1993 the regional constituency was assigned seven mandates, whereby the recalculation of the mandate distribution in 2002 (according to the results of the 2001 census) did not lead to any change in the number of basic mandates.

Since the creation of the constituency, the Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) has succeeded in becoming the party with the highest number of votes in every election, achieving its best result so far in the 2002 National Council elections with 52.9%. The SPÖ recorded its worst result in the last National Council election in 2008, when it came to 41.8%. The second strongest party in five out of six elections was the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ), which achieved its highest level in 1999 with 27.9%. After falling to 9.0% in 2002, the FPÖ was able to increase again to 27.0% by 2008. The Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) only managed to come second in 2002, and in this election it also achieved its highest share of the vote with 25.4%. Otherwise, the ÖVP always ended up in third place, with 10.8% in 2008, their worst result so far, just ahead of the Greens (GREENS). These reached around 10 to 11% in the last three elections.
