Tension in Graz – Is Governor Schützenhöfer about to resign?

Date:

Styrian Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer invites you to a press conference at Graz Castle on Friday. They keep themselves unobtrusive about the exact subject, which heightens the tension. There is a lot of speculation about a layoff.

While half the country is mentally already in the long Whitsun weekend, the pulse in the political power circles in Styria is rising again. Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer will shortly invite you for a press statement – a step that happens rarely and usually results in important announcements.

Strong accents set
The governor of Styria this year celebrated his 70th birthday and there has long been speculation about his political future. Schützenhöfer took over the Styrian People’s Party after a painful election defeat in 2005, consolidated it and surprisingly became governor in 2015 – though only second in the election. Then in 2019 a brilliant victory in the polls.

The Styrian has set trends within the federal party in recent months, for example with controversial proposals in the corona pandemic. That is why he called for mandatory vaccination very early on. Schützenhöfer is also said to have been a driving force behind the departure of former Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.
