    Austria's Sunday presidential election with an eye on Brexit and Trump's victory

    Hofer has taken a strong anti-immigration position and said he might call a referendum on whether Austria should leave the European Union.

    Austrian voters could elect the European Union’s first far-right leader in the a presidential election on Sunday. Norbert Hofer of the far-right Freedom Party is running against Alexander Van der Bellen. Van der Bellen is an independent candidate who led The Greens party earlier. Recent public opinion studies have shown the two candidates with about equal support.
