Austria's presidential election is becoming quite intense on Sunday, as the right wing candidate got 50.1 percent votes, slightly higher than his rival the independent candidate, who got 49.9 percent votes, the second official poll shows.
It's hard to say who is going to win the election, the votes counting are not finished in some cities, especially in Vienna.
No matter who is becoming the president, this will be the first time since the Second World War that an Austrian president has not been backed by main stream ruling parties.
If the right wing party won the election, it could be a new wave of the rise of rightism in Europe, which could change the political map of Austria or even Europe.
