In February, we previewed this year’s national elections in Hungary and the beginnings of what appeared to be an “anti-migrant alliance” among EU members who were disillusioned with Brussels’ unlimited, open border policies. At the time, incumbent Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban looked like a solid lock for a third term and a possible expansion of his ruling party’s majority in their National Assembly.
Well, those elections took place yesterday, and if anything, Orban’s party overperformed even the most optimistic expectations among pollsters. Not only did he win with nearly three-quarters of the vote, but his party should be left with a supermajority in Parliament, giving them the ability to enact changes to their constitution and basically write their own ticket for the next few years. This is being seen as a crushing blow by those who support the socialist minority and the unlimited immigration policies of the European Union. For example, check out how the New York Times described it.
Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary, who has set about transforming this former Soviet bloc member from a vibrant democracy into a semi-autocratic state under one political party’s control, appeared to have won a sweeping victory in national elections on Sunday, with 93 percent of the vote counted.
By securing two-thirds of the seats in Parliament, Mr. Orban’s party, Fidesz — along with its ally, the Christian Democrats — now has the power to change the Constitution and further bend the nation to his will.
