Austria's far-right party FPÖ seeks unprecedented election win as migration issue dominates campaign

The Austrian parliamentary elections are approaching on September 29, with several parties vying for power. The far-right Freedom Party (FP) is leading in the polls, with around 28% of the vote, and is poised to secure its first general election win. The FP has successfully tapped into concerns about migration, inflation, and the war in Ukraine, and its leader, Herbert Kickl, is the front-runner in the polls. The ruling conservatives are in a close second place, while the opposition Social Democrats are in third place. The election will determine whether the FP will become the strongest political force in Austria, and whether its leader, Herbert Kickl, will become the next chancellor. The FP's campaign has been focused on economic worries and immigration.
