Hungary's opposition Tisza party wins constitutional majority in parliamentary elections

Share:

Hungary's opposition Tisza party secured a decisive victory in parliamentary elections, winning 141 seats out of 199 in the National Assembly after all votes were counted. The result gives Tisza a constitutional majority, which allows the party to make fundamental changes to Hungary's constitution and institutional framework without needing support from other parties. This represents a significant political shift in Hungary, where Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's Fidesz party has dominated politics for over a decade. A constitutional majority requires two-thirds of parliamentary seats, giving the winning party substantial power to reshape the country's legal and political system.
