A large majority of active voters, 68 percent, saw the ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrats (KDNP) winning the general election if it were held this Sunday, according to a fresh survey of the Nézőpont Institute.
Only 15 percent of active voters anticipated an opposition win, the survey published in the Wednesday edition of the daily Magyar Nemzet found.
Pro-government voters are overwhelmingly confident about the elections, Nézőpont said. Fully 88 percent anticipated Fidesz-KDNP being re-elected, 11 percent expressed uncertainty, while a mere 1 percent reckoned with an opposition victory, Nézőpont said.
Among opposition voters, 42 percent saw their side winning as against 36 percent who anticipated a victory by the ruling parties,
Nézőpont said.
Active voters have not changed their minds since December 2021, Nézőpont said, suggesting the “leftist parties’ failure to get organised”.
“Due to constant delays in finalising a joint list, delays in finding common ground on campaign issues, a lack of messages offering an alternative and [joint prime ministerial candidate]
Péter Márki-Zay’s weak campaign performance,
the past month has failed to bring about positive turn for the anti-government forces,” Nézőpont said.

Do not become complacent!
The USA and EU will interfere in the Hungarian election. They both want to remove Orban.
I urge everyone to speak to family and friends and get out the vote for Fidesz.
Hungarian people should not take a FIDESZ win for granted. They must go and vote. In the mean time, help FIDESZ and Mr. Orban to be reelected, help the party by spreading the good news or support them with donations.
Hungary had few Prime Ministers that put the interest of the people first and repelled criminal illegals and tyranny of Brussels. Energy prices are lower in Hungary than rest of EU. Once COVID is over, Hungary will once more flourish.
What the heck do you know about prices in Hungary, holed up as you are in Canada? Yes, Energy prices are lower here as you state. As is petrol. But nearly everything else is more expensive (despite the recent roll back on a few paltry items) due to Hungary having the highest rate of VAT in Europe at 27%.
