Századvég’s poll: Hungary’s leading parties hold a comfortable lead

Hungary’s leading alliance of Fidesz and the Christian Democrats continues to hold a comfortable lead over the other parties, according to a new poll by the government-close Századvég.

Hungary’s leading parties are still strong

Taking the voting population as a whole, the ruling parties are backed by 40 percent of voters, with their nearest opposition rival, the Tisza Party, on 31 percent, Századvég told MTI on Monday. The radical Mi Hazánk (Our Homeland) party and the Two-Tailed Dog Party (MKKP) are third with 6 percent each.

The left-wing opposition parties are currently below the 5 percent threshold for seats in parliament, Századvég said.

Altogether 8 percent of the poll’s respondents were undecided.

Among decided voters, Fidesz and the Christian Democrats would capture 43 percent of the vote if an election were held now, the Tisza Party would get 32 percent and Mi Hazánk and MKKP 7 percent each. The left-wing parties would fail to reach the parliamentary threshold.

Századvég conducted the poll this month with a sample of 1,000 adults.
