“The Tisza Party not only won the election, but it appears it will hold a two-thirds majority for the next four years,” said Péter Magyar, leader of the Tisza Party and Hungary’s next prime minister.
My fellow countrymen, Hungarians, we did it. The Tisza and Hungary have won this election. Not just by a little, but by a lot—in fact, by a great deal
—Péter Magyar began his victory speech late Sunday evening in Batthyány Square, across from the Parliament.
He continued: “Together, we have ousted the Orbán regime and liberated Hungary; we have reclaimed our homeland.”
Our victory is visible not from the moon, but from every Hungarian window. Whether it’s the smallest mud-brick house or a high-rise apartment building, in the city or the countryside, it’s visible from every window
—he added.
In the history of democratic Hungary, no party has ever received such a strong mandate as Tisza. He is talking about 3.3 million votes, which have given them a mandate to govern, and all signs point to them having a strong two-thirds majority in the new National Assembly. This mandate is what will allow the transition to be as efficient and peaceful as possible.
Today you performed a miracle; today Hungary made history
– he added, after which his supporters began chanting “Ria, Ria, Hungária.”
He said that, despite facing a complete headwind, they managed to achieve such a great victory as millions of “Ludas Matyis,” even though the ruling party deployed its entire apparatus against them, attempting to destroy the Tisza in a manner reminiscent of a one-party state. The Hungarian people have spoken, and truth has triumphed over lies.
If you missed - Orbán: We lost, and I congratulated the winner!
We won today because the Hungarian people did not ask what their country could do for them, but rather asked what they could do for their country. And you did not just ask; you also found the answer and took the action demanded by the homeland
—so said Magyar.
Today, Hungarians said no to deception and betrayal. Two years ago, a few people set out, and in the end, love triumphed in the battle between David and Goliath, because in the end, love always triumphs. He expressed his gratitude that his voters had heeded the biblical advice: “Do not be afraid!”
How many times and how many people told us that it wasn’t worth going to the countryside, that we couldn’t leave the capital. How many times did we hear that we had to come to terms with His Majesty’s opposition, that we had to make deals, because there was no other way. But of course there is—today you have proven that it is indeed possible!
– he continued.
He called March 15, 1848, October 23, 1956, and now April 12, 2026, moments of grace.
“Let this too be a date inscribed in gold in the history of Hungarian freedom—not the victory of one party over another, but the victory of the Hungarians over those who betrayed them, the victory of freedom over those who betrayed them. Let this be a victory for all Hungarians today, for those who voted for Tisza and for those who did not,” he remarked.
Every Hungarian feels in their heart that this is a wonderful, shared victory, because the homeland has decided and wants to live again, he added.
He wants a country where citizens can count on their government, where everyone is entitled to proper healthcare, a carefree childhood, and a dignified old age. A country where what matters is not who knows whom, but who a person is and what kind of person they are. Let Hungary be a country where one can come home. He also thanked his compatriots abroad for the tens of thousands who voted and asked them to move back home, because every Hungarian is needed.
The task is enormous, but we Hungarians love big challenges
– he declared.
In his view, it is a wonderful thing to be Hungarian today; everyone longs for the unification of the nation, and “we are setting out on this path today.” The Tisza government will represent all Hungarians, because we must not make distinctions between Hungarians, for that is a sin. For whoever divides the people must step down from power.
He asked his voters to celebrate today and join them on this shared path. They will earn that trust every hour, every minute, he promises.
I call on the prime minister to act as a caretaker government starting today and not to take any measures that would tie the hands of the next government
— he told Orbán.
“If any questions arise during the transition period, please contact me; you have my phone number,” he said, noting that Orbán had already congratulated him by phone.
“I also call on the President of the Republic to ask me to form a government, then step down from office, and I call on all the puppets to do the same,” he stated, then listed who he was referring to:
- the President of the Supreme Court,
- the President of the National Judicial Office,
- the President of the Constitutional Court,
- the President of the State Audit Office,
- the President of the Hungarian Competition Authority,
- and the head of the Media Authority.
He announced that the system of checks and balances will be restored, and Hungary will join the European Public Prosecutor’s Office.
They will rebuild and, if possible, expand the cooperation of the Visegrád Four.
My first trip will take me to Poland to strengthen the thousand-year-old Polish-Hungarian friendship. My second trip will take me to Vienna. And my third will be to Brussels to secure the EU funds to which Hungarians are entitled
– he said.
He spoke by phone with the German chancellor, the Croatian prime minister, the NATO secretary general, the president of the European People’s Party and the European Commission, as well as the French president, but dozens of other European leaders are awaiting his call.

Hungary election 2026: TODAY – Tisza is close to two-thirds 🔴
God bless Hungary.
you can go fight to the battle front and pay ukrainians from your own pocket
which battle front? if we send anyone to the battle front, may it be fidesz supporters like you, the whole world would be blessed if we got rid of the likes.
Welcome to mass immigration from the third world – enjoy the rape gangs and being ruled by the EU.
Exactly what will happen May! Many Hungarians who voted for these globalist puppets voted for their own destruction.
Hopefully you can be de-Naziffied. It happened after 1945 as well.
If you read through his speech, you see that there is absolutely nothing of substance there. It’s all fluff, puff, and guff – just like Obama back in the day.
There’s a reason for that: He doesn’t want to tell the schmucks who voted for him what awaits them. Third-world trash will flood in, our money will go to Ukraine, our liberties will go to the Net Zero maniacs, and our energy bills will go into the stratosphere.
Good bye, Hungary. We hardly knew ye.
Totally agree with you, Michael Steiner!
I cannot believe this election was honest. When “record numbers voted” it becomes suspicious. Same as with Biden in 2020.
If this was, in fact, an honest election, the Hungarians who voted for Magyar will come to regret this.
There is a saying in Hungarian: “a kutya is akkor vesz meg amikor jól megy dolga”. Translation: a dog goes crazy even when things are going well for it.
Hungarians will look back on the days when energy costs were low and the streets were safe from migrant crime.
God help Hungary!
The brainwashed Fidesz fanatics are like those who drank the Kool-Aid during the socialist years and actually thought the Russians were bringing freedom and brotherhood to the masses. They had the rug pulled out from them in 1989 and found out they were living a lie. Hopefully Michael you will eventually be able to admit to yourself that you have been living a lie.. This election proved that Fidesz was wrong for the country and the people have spoken.
You can always move? My staff demanded relocation, had Fidesz won …
So – where would you go @michaelsteiner? Dream country? Where everything is … Better ???
Such an idiot. You claim to live here for decades and still you couldnt hear his speech in Hungarian? 😂😂
What about you leave the country and let real Hungarians decide their own future?
Fuc# off stupid parasite Steiner
Congratulations, neighbours!
Well done!
oh no! the Hungarian golden age is over 🙁
No more unicorns in the Land of Milk and Honey? Or did our Politicians disappear the unicorns (or zebras), milk the land dry and expatriate the honey?
This election was a massive blow against Putin and Russia. He has lost his Trojan Horse inside the EU and NATO. The forint overnight strengthened by 10 forints per euro from 375 to 365! The markets gave Tisza and Magyar Peter a big thumbs up.
The EU pounded down the forint from 305-315 way up to about 400 to punish Fidesz. Let the Billionaire Leftists pay Tisza loyaliats and Hungarians back now and raised living standards up to Austrian levels. Wait all you wanted to to out Orbán from power. Alex Soros, Tusk and Weber and boss Ursula are rubbing their hands in glee.
I accept that Magyar and his Tisza Party has won the Election however, Magyar is a former member of Fidesz and himself a Conservative by nature .
No doubt the EU will quickly want to vote through changes to the way the EU votes on things like international policies that need all to approve !…..this will now be changed to a “ majority vote system” so that the Veto a couple of small States could use to stop a policy that 85% could want , this will now be changed ……..i suspect that the low Tax and Business Tax in Hungary will go, mass migration will be forced on Hungary , Transgenderism, Gay Marriages , and Hungary will be forced to adopt the Euro and thus, they will be controlled by Brussels …….i actually blame Fidesz for this mess, they should have led Hungary out of the EU and into the BRICS and / or EAEU and SCO .
