Austria on course to elect worlds youngest leader and it could be more bad news for the EU.
Quote:
Austria's foreign minister is on course to become the country's next chancellor and the world's youngest head of government.
People's Party leader Sebastian Kurz will become Austrian chancellor at the age of 31 if projections from Sunday's election prove correct.
Projections from the SORA polling organisation put the People's Party on 30.5%, followed by the center-left Social Democrats with 27.1%.
The euroskeptic Freedom Party is expected to come third with 25.9%.
Both Kurz's People's Party and the Freedom Party have focused their campaigns on concerns about immigration and Islam.
If projections are correct, it could herald a coalition between the two parties - which would mean a rightward turn for Austria.
