Dark red balance – Graz a year after the communist revolution

Date:

Exactly 363 days ago, the political balance of power in Graz, Austria’s second largest city, was turned upside down and the KPÖ became the strongest party. The “phenomenon” with Mayor Elke Kahr has not yet arrived everywhere.

The hammer and sickle are still undecorated from the Schlossberg, the football figureheads Sturm and GAK were spared a name change as Dynamo or Lokomotiv – and yet what happened on September 26, 2021 in Graz falls into the “historical” category: for the first time , the communists were the strongest political force in the capital. International media lined up for an interview with the “phenomenon” Elke Kahr. Recently, even the venerable New York Times sent a reporter to the metropolis of Mur.
