反移民的奥地利极右翼自由党候选人在首轮总统选举中胜出，获得超过35%的选票，远远超过5个竞争对手，包括执政联盟的候选人。
霍费尔把反移民和反欧洲做为竞选纲领，赢得了36.4%的选票，将与独立候选人，前绿党成员范德贝伦参加下个月的决选。
这是奥地利自由党迄今在全国选举中的最佳表现。该党的竞选重点是移民危机以及去年夏天以来抵达奥地利的10万寻求避难者所带来的影响。
执政联盟的两名候选人，中间偏左的社会民主党候选人洪茨托弗和中间派人民党候选人科尔，分别获得约11%的选票。
Austria’s anti-immigration far-right Freedom Party won the first round of the presidential election, gathering more than 35 percent of the vote and leaving five rivals far behind, including nominees of the ruling governing coalition.
Norbert Hofer, who ran on an anti-immigrant and anti-Europe platform, won 36.4 percent of the vote and will face off against an independent, former member of the Green Party Alexander van der Bellen, in next month’s run-off election.
It was the best result the Freedom Party has seen in a national election, its campaign focused primarily on the impact of the migrant crisis and the 100,000 asylum seekers that have arrived in Austria since last summer.
Both candidates from the ruling coalition, center-left Social Democrat Rudolph Hundstorfer and centrist People’s Party nominee Andreas Khol, each received about 11 percent of the vote.
