Hungarian opposition DK to nominate own candidates in all 106 individual constituencies in 2026
The opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) plans to nominate candidates in all 106 individual constituencies in the 2026 general election, according to a party official.
DK’s plan
Public opinion polls indicate that four parties have a chance of entering parliament in 2026, and since Fidesz, Tisza and Mi Hazánk are all right-wing, Christian parties, only Democratic Coalition will represent non-right-wing voters, Csaba Molnár, DK’s executive vice-president, told an online press briefing on Tuesday.
Nominations will be for candidates who are local, well-known, and for the most part already elected representatives.
