At this point, out of 199 seats in the Hungarian parliament, Tisza can count on 132, which is nearly a constitutional majority (133).

Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz is currently in second place with 69 seats.

"Our Homeland" is projected to win 8 seats.

As a reminder, for the first time in many years, the opposition in Hungary has a chance to defeat Orbán.

The opposition party Tisa has a chance to win two-thirds of the seats in the Hungarian Parliament in the April 12 elections, which would allow it to amend the constitution and key laws.
