The Burgenland Landtagswahl 2025 is underway, with 13.68% of eligible voters already casting their ballots during the early voting day.

This marks a rise in early participation compared to 2020. Voters who cannot attend on January 19th are urged to apply for a voting card by January 17th.

Six parties, including the SPÖ, ÖVP, FPÖ, Greens, NEOS, and Liste Hausverstand, are competing for 36 seats in the Landtag.

The SPÖ, which won a majority in 2020, faces a competitive race.

Final campaign events are ongoing, and results, including mail-in votes, will be announced on election night.
