Hungary's Fidesz Would Win Two-Thirds Majority
- 26 Sep 2013 9:00 AM
Fidesz managed to slightly increase its support among decided party voters, crossing the 50% mark after two years, according to the latest poll conducted by Tárki. If parliamentary elections were held now, Fidesz would again obtain a two-thirds majority by winning 139 parliamentary seats, according to rival pollster Medián.
Medián found after interviewing 1,200 citizens on September 6-10, that only 23% of those seeking a change of government believe that the election pact concluded by the Socialists and Together in late August is the best possible solution, while 22% said it is not at all. Another 41% said the agreement is good but would have been better with a joint list and a shared candidate for prime minister.
