Norbert Hofer should win, but all votes not counted yet

DW, representing the establishment, has on it's site now:

The direct votes gave right-winger Norbert Hofer 51.9 percent to 48.1 percent for Alexander Van der Bellen, a Greens politician running as an independent. 

Nearly 700,000 absentee ballots are still to be counted Monday, making them the likely decider following the 4.48 million people who voted directly on Sunday.

Final projections that included the still-to-be-counted absentee ballots put each candidate at 50 percent, with Van der Bellen narrowly ahead. Bullshit!

While the presidential role is mainly ceremonial, there are key powers within the constitution which give the president the right to sack the government and to dissolve parliament.  What they are afraid of.

The final results are due at the earliest on Monday evening. The first time they said it was mid-morning, then changed to mid-afternoon, now it's evening. It's clear they are trying to figure out how to change the result!!!!! I mean, it's only 700,000 votes to count. Shades of the Geo. W. Bush Florida debacle.
