Fidesz confident they will win Hungarian elections in 2026

The communications director of the Fidesz-Christian Democrats said on Wednesday that polling showed the ruling alliance ahead of its main rival “by a large margin”, and this level of support would be replicated in the 2026 general election.

In a video message on Facebook, Tamás Menczer vowed that Fidesz would protect the values underpinning peace and security and launch an economic programme that would have a “positive and tangible” effect on the everyday lives of Hungarians. He listed affordable housing, loans and subsidies, opportunities for small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, favourable financing for employees and wage increases as key government policies.

Menczer said it was realistic to expect 2025 to turn out to be “exceptionally good”. “We will protect our achievements: one million jobs, the tax exemption for young people and the 13th month pension, family support … and we will double the tax relief…” he said.
