Hungary To Hold Parliamentary Elections

BUDAPEST, HUNGARY - MARCH 18: A poster featuring Dialogue for Hungary (Parbeszed Magyarorszagert) party candidate Gergely Karacsony hangs prior to the upcoming Hungarian parliamentary elections on April 8, on March 18, 2018 in Budapest, Hungary. Incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orban faces only a few disorganized opposition parties standing in the way of a possible third term, although the popularity of his own, Fidesz, once a liberal student movement and now advocating an increasingly anti-immigrant, anti-European Union platform after dominating Hungarian politics on both national and local levels since 2010, has fallen since December. It suffered a surprising setback last month in its southern town stronghold of Hodmezovasarhely, when an opposition-backed independent won an easy victory, giving hope to other contenders for success in the national elections in early April.
