Pro-govt poll: Orbán and Fidesz retains lead
Fully 49 percent of Hungary’s “politically active voters” would support ruling Fidesz and 41 percent would vote for the united opposition if the general election were held this coming Sunday, the Nézőpont Institute said on Monday.
The pollster said on it website that the gap between the two blocs had not narrowed, while it also said its data indicated that
“the Russia-Ukraine war has clearly had a negative impact on support for the smaller parties”.
Nézőpont said only 4 percent of Fidesz supporters were undecided, while that ratio was as high as 41 percent on the other side, adding that “this could be explained by Péter Márki-Zay’s lack of popularity”, it added, referring to the prime ministerial candidate of the united opposition.
According to the pollster, 56 percent of left-leaning respondents said they would prefer Márki-Zay to be the next prime minister to incumbent Viktor Orbán, while the rest of this segment “could not express a clear position”.
“The leftist candidate is not powerful enough to maximise votes,” they said.
Nézőpont said the proportion of swing voters within the camp of active voters came to 5 percent, which the pollster characterised as “unusual”.
The survey has indicated 3 percent support for the satirical Two-tailed Dog Party, and 2 percent for radical party Mi Hazánk, which may make either parties winning seats unlikely, the pollster said.
The poll was conducted by phone between March 16 and 21, with a representative sample of 1,000 voting-age adults.

Hungary – does it meet and “Move” deeper into the East ???
Hungary – is thought to be the new Silk Road – the meeting of the East and the West – in its Deepening Relationship with China.
China – being continuosly found out by the West, its “Sitting” on the Fence, with this conflict of war “raging” between the Ukraine and Hungary’s “other” – Brother in Arms – Russia – must think Deep and Wide expansively – when we vote on April 3rd.
What style of Government – for the FUTURE do we see for Hungary ???
Post 1989 – these up-coming National Elections – are the greatest personal CHALLENGE – to the population of Hungary – the cast of our vote – for the Political Party – we THINK – will govern Hungary – in this time of our History and the immediate FUTURE.
What Party – to the East – in its DNA and “Mother” Russia – do we Vote ???
or a Government – that has a leaning to-wards greater ideas and values under the EU and Democracy – that possible will FUNCTION – if elected – without the illimination of Peoples Freedom – Press and Judicial Domination – that opens it-self to greater citizen/population in-put – an open Society Philosophy of operation ?
Nothing is going to get cheaper in Hungary.
Hungary – our Economy – is in a Mass Troubled Position.
The rising Government Debt of Hungary – what a Headache.
Inflation – up up and away.
Petrol prices – post April 3rd – watch and SEE – it will possible SHOCK you.
Interest Rates – will continue to rise.
Our currency – is under extreme pressure – its Devaluation against ALL other Major currencies – Freightening.
Our property market – is sitting in a position, that could become a Carnage.
Hungary – the rising Debt strain we are Faced to address – what a challenge.
Will the European Union – Bail us out ?
Hungary – our relationship with the European Union – long un-forgiving memories in Brussels – which Hungary – possible will have to manage alone – “do the crime – pay the time” – until the European Union regains CONFIDENCE – that Hungary are COMMITTED to the Laws of being a member country of the European Union.
Hungary – our relationship with the United States of America – needs re-addressing – especially in light of the Ukraine/Russia – conflict of War.
April 3rd – what a date and what a time in the FUTURE of Hungary – that we ALL have a ROLE to Play.
Government controlled (directly or at arms length) media regularly reports that government influenced (controlled) opinion polls show that voters are largely pro government, thus influencing the undecided voters. Now there’s a surprise. Straight out of the Kremlin’s playbook. Putin has taught Orbán well, it seems.
