Protests in Hungary

"In the last vote for Parliament, in 2022, Fidesz not only outperformed the forecasts of some polls, but after winning 37 percent of votes cast overall, it won 68 percent of seats."


He needs very few votes to get a super majority (enough to have significant impact and change the constitution)
Yeah but the 2022 election didn't have such a united opposition as it does today + the main opposition guy made a huge screw up in 2022 by talking about putting Hungarian troops on the ground in the Ukraine-Russian war.
 
Does Budapest have a Capitol building and at least a shaman or two?
 
Tisza are currently winning every constituency seat in Budapest (16 constituencies) and Pest County (14 constituencies)...the provinces with the most constituencies with gargantuan majorities.
 
Doubt other far right parties in Europe will be keen to seek endorsements from Trump or Vance.
 

Tisza's Magyar says Orbán 'congratulated us on our victory'​

Oh.

Tisza’s leader Péter Magyar has just said on Facebook and X that Viktor Orbán called him up to congratulate “on our victory.”

Let’s wait for the official confirmation from the prime minister’s side.

Orbán concedes election to Tisza’s Magyar​

That’s it.

Viktor Orbán is now speaking at Fidesz’s election night and he says the election result is “clear” as he concedes defeat.

He says he congratulated the winning party and admits the result is painful for Fidesz.

 
Magyar says Orbán has congratulated him

Magyar has just posted on Facebook to say Orbán has congratulated him.
Here is a translation of his post: "Just now Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has congratulated me on our victory in a phone call."

Magyar says Orbán has congratulated him

Tisza is projected to win 135 mandates in 199-seat parliament based on partial results with 45.7% of the votes counted, according to the national election office.

Sounds like it's pretty much determined then, save for the formalities.

That would be epic, but would he really concede defeat so graciously?
Despite the Iran war literally blowing up in their faces the US vice president still makes time to fly in to try influence the election and their candidate still flops 😂

This just says to me that he's seen the numbers and has been crushed such that even with his bag of tricks, he can't get the numbers to win.

Yup, official from his election night party. It looks the opposition will get two-thirds majority even. There's no coming back from this. The defeat is comprehensive. The opposition are currently in the lead in 95/106 constituencies with 78% of constituency vote counted.
