In a monthly survey, the FPÖ overtook the SPÖ with 28 percent approval – the party is now in first place for the first time in almost seven years. SPÖ leader Pamela Rendi-Wagner lost in the fictitious direct chancellor question: after 15 percent in December, they would vote directly for 12 percent in January.
The FPÖ managed to gain two percentage points in the large monthly survey “Profile”, while the SPÖ lost two percentage points. The Social Democrats only got 24 percent. If this were possible, 17 percent of those polled stated that they wanted to elect FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl directly as chancellor – up from 15 percent in the previous month.
Chancellor Karl Nehammer (ÖVP) is 20 percent ahead in the chancellor issue and was able to raise two percentage points. His party rose to 22 percent and also achieved an increase of two percentage points. The Greens achieved twelve percent and managed to make up one percentage point. The NEOS remain at nine percent.
