Austria Holds Presidential Election

VIENNA, AUSTRIA - DECEMBER 04: Austrian independent presidential candidate Alexander van der Bellen speaks during the election party following Austrian presidential elections on December 4, 2016 in Vienna, Austria. Initial exit poll results indicate that van der Bellen, a liberally-minded, former economics professor who has the support of the Austrian Greens party, is in the lead, though an official election result will not be announced until tomorrow. Many analysts will be scrutinizing the election result for significance well beyond Austria. Right-wing populist parties and movements have seen a surge of electoral success in recent years across Europe that is calling into question not only the strength of common social-liberal values across Europe but the also the future cohesion of the European Union.
