The results of the Vienna Green Party leadership election will be announced this evening.

Maria Vassilakou is retiring after some 15 years as GP leader there and 5 candidates are running to succeed her:



The new party leader will also take over her role as Vice-Mayor of Vienna, because there's an SPÖ-Green coalition in the Austrian capital.

Some 3.500 Green Party members, officials and people who paid a certain fee and registered were able to vote by postal ballot until 5pm today.

The votes are now counted and the new party leader is determined by IRV.

Can you give a rundown of the candidates?
