Survey: Fidesz retains lead in polls

Across the whole voter base the ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrat alliance has a “convincing, 12 percentage point lead” over the opposition Tisza Party, pollster Magyar Társadalomkutató said on Monday, citing its latest survey.

According to Társadalomkutató’s report, 38 percent of voting age adults would support the ruling parties, while Tisza would garner 26 percent, if elections were held next weekend. The pollster added that the ruling parties’ lead was somewhat smaller, 8 percentage points, among decided voters.

Based on feedback from politically active respondents, the radical Mi Hazank and satirical Two-Tailed Dog parties would clear beside Fidesz-KDNP and Tisza the parliamentary threshold with a 6 percent support each.

The poll was conducted on a representative sample of 1,000 people between November 19-22.
