Voter Apathy In Hungary Abates Slightly
A total of 44% eligible voters rather than a mere 38% a month ago say they would vote if elections were held this weekend, according to an August survey by Ipsos.

Participation would be highest among those aged 50-70, Budapest residents, and degree holders.

Half of the population would like to see a change of government at next year’s elections, while 65% agree that things are going in the wrong direction.
