2003 Tyrolean State Election
The 2003 Tyrolean state election was held on 28 September 2003 to elect the members of the Landtag of Tyrol. The Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) regained the absolute majority it had lost in 1999, winning just under 50% of votes cast. The Social Democratic Party of Austria (SPÖ) made gains, and The Greens achieved one of their best election results nationwide up to this point, winning 15.6% and five seats. This was enabled by a collapse in support for the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ), which lost more than half its vote share and five of its seven seats. The election was marked by a major decline in participation due to the repeal of compulsory voting; turnout fell from 81% to 61%. As a result, only the Greens actually gained votes compared to 1999, recording an increase of 17,000. By contrast, the ÖVP lost 19,000 votes, the SPÖ 500, and the FPÖ 45,000. Despite regaining its majority, the ÖVP under Governor Herwig van Staa chose to renew the incumbent coalition with the S ...

2003 Elections In Austria
3 (three) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 2 and preceding 4, and is the smallest odd prime number and the only prime preceding a square number. It has religious or cultural significance in many societies. Evolution of the Arabic digit The use of three lines to denote the number 3 occurred in many writing systems, including some (like Roman and Chinese numerals) that are still in use. That was also the original representation of 3 in the Brahmic (Indian) numerical notation, its earliest forms aligned vertically. However, during the Gupta Empire the sign was modified by the addition of a curve on each line. The Nāgarī script rotated the lines clockwise, so they appeared horizontally, and ended each line with a short downward stroke on the right. In cursive script, the three strokes were eventually connected to form a glyph resembling a with an additional stroke at the bottom: ३. The Indian digits spread to the Caliphate in ...
