Tisza has won convincingly, with 138 seats in Hungary’s 199-seat parliament, securing a two-thirds supermajority. Fidesz falls to 55 seats, and will serve as the main opposition party. DK failed to win a single seat, and Klára Dobrev resigned as party leader.
Hungary heads to the polls this Sunday, 12 April, in what is widely seen as one of the most consequential elections in the country’s post-communist history.
