The annual OGAE Poll has continued with its fourth set of results as OGAE Austria reveals its top scores. Finland has secured the top spot in the Austrian vote, and maintains its overall lead in the early standings.
The OGAE Poll is one of the most vital and discussed indicators within the global Eurovision community. Every year, tens of thousands of fans belonging to OGAE – the official organization for Eurovision fan clubs in Europe and beyond – vote for their favorite song among the contestants. For 2026, members were asked to rank the 35 participating entries. The poll is considered an early indication of trends and reflects social media buzz.
While the official international OGAE channels have not yet begun the traditional rollout of 2026 results, the local branches – France, Romania, Denmark and now Austria – have moved ahead to reveal their rankings earlier than expected. This network of fan clubs has managed this poll annually since 2007, using the iconic Eurovision voting method. The full results from all clubs are expected to be unveiled by early May, just before rehearsals commence in the host city.
Following the earlier reveal of the French and Romanian Eurovision OGAE clubs results, the official votes from OGAE Austria have now been disclosed. The clear winner for the Austrian club was Finland, represented by Linda Lampenius x Pete Parkkonen, who secured a massive amount of 1,075 points. They are set to perform the song “Liekinheitin” (in English: “Flamethrower”) on the eurovision stage in Vienna.

Cyprus and Australia follow in second place, both with 23 points.
