MP Reveals April 6 Election Date In Hungary
Christian Democrat MP Miklós Seszták appeared to accidentally give away the date of the national election as April 6 in the general debate on next year’s budget in Parliament on Friday.

“This further increases the concerns of the democratic opposition about free elections,” Together-Dialogue for Hungary alliance said.

“If the governing parties know the election date then President János Áder, who should symbolise national unity, has already held consultations with his parent party on the desired election date.

Seszták said Friday evening that he thinks the election will be held on April 6 but the actual date is unknown.
