He was the State Chairman of the [[VSStÖ|Socialist Students of Austria]], the student organisation of the [[SPÖ]] from 1975 to 1978, a member of the Viennese Municipal Council from 1983 to 1988, and from 1988 until 1994, theExecutive townCity councillorCouncillor for the [[Natural environment|environmentEnvironment]] and [[sportSport]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Michael Häupl, SPÖ Wien|url=http://www.spoe.wien/haeupl/|website=SPÖ Wien}}</ref> Häupl followed [[Helmut Zilk]] in 1993 as a state party chairman of the SPÖ in Vienna<ref name="nzz01">{{cite web|last1=siehe Grafik|title=Der Sanierer|url=https://nzz.at/oesterreich/republik/der-sanierer|website=Neue Zürcher Zeitung}}</ref> and on 7 November 1994, he became the mayor of Vienna.
 
Häupl has won three elections since his appointment as mayor; each of them has led to increased majorities for the SPÖ. In the 1996 City Council election, the SPÖ lost its overall control of the 100-seat chamber with 43 seats on 39.15% of the vote. 1996 also saw a strong [[FPÖ]], which won 29 seats (up from 21 in 1991), beating the [[ÖVP]] into third place for the second time running. For the period 1996-2001 the SPÖ governed Vienna in a coalition with the ÖVP.
In 2001 the SPÖ regained overall control with 52 seats on 46.91% of the vote; it improved on this in October 2005 with 55 seats on 49.09%. However, Häupl has also presided over a period of increased voter apathy, with turnout dropping from 68.46% in 1996 to 60.81% in 2005. ▼
