Hungary election live: Polls in Hungary close in tightly fought election after 16 years under Viktor Orbán
Tisza lead widens as close to quarter of votes counted
Of course, the numbers got updated just as I was typing the last post. Of course.
We are now at 21.54%, so getting close to a quarter of all votes, and Tisza is currently projected to get 128 seats – just short of the 133 needed for the 2/3 majority – to Fidesz’s 62 and Mi Hazank’s 8.

Hopefully Tisza gets majority if for no other reason than to fix Orban's fucked up electoral math.
Would they? Didn't they splinter from the same party? They seem better, but what gives you faith they would reduce their power like that?
fr this is worse than toilet paper roll math
I hope vance will come to Italy and do the same with meloni
136 (over the 135, 2/3 threshold) projected with 53% now!
there are 199 seats and so 2/3 supermajority is 133 seats. tisza has 136 now at 60%ish polling stations counted
at 45% polling stations (?) in, Tisza has 135 seats, which is more than supermajority, and results from bigger cities where opposition has greater support still are not yet counted. if mi hazank drops under 5% threshold, their lead will be greater. lowkey expecting that orban is looking for plane tickets to moscow rn
update: at 72% stations in, Tisza has 138 seats
46% counted and Magyar/Tisza are forecast to have 135 seats out of 199, which gives them a super majority
I hope this means they're able to reverse a bunch of the press consolidation and constitutional changes that kept Orbán in power for so long, and change the constitution so that no party in power can so easily do what Fidesz did.
Genuinely just wishing that Orban will win, these Soros open society guys will ruin the country along side with EU
How embarrassing for you
Fascists don't feel embarrassment
At least not above the baseline self-hatred that makes them fascist to begin with
Y'all the reason racism survives into the 21st century.
It literally means nations... It's not a derogatory term for non-jewish people.
Wasism is a natwernal ting.
Orbán has been funded by Soros if that matters.
