Polls conducted before Sunday’s parliamentary elections in Hungary, and published after voting closed at 7 p.m. on Sunday, indicate a clear victory for the opposition party led by Tisza Peter Magyar.
Median Poll Findings
According to a Median poll conducted between April 7-11, Tisza’s party could secure up to 135 seats in the 199-seat, unicameral parliament. The far-right Our Homeland Movement (Mi Hazank) does not exceed the 5 percent electoral threshold, according to the survey.
21 Research Center Data
