NEW RELEASE
Scenarios for the 2026 Hungarian Parliamentary Elections
The Institute for Danube Region and Central Europe (IDM) has published a new study examining possible political scenarios following the Hungarian parliamentary elections. The analysis outlines potential developments after the vote, depending on which party emerges as the winner and by what margin.
At the core of the study is the question of which institutional and political tools the governing party Fidesz could use to delay the official certification of the election results or to obstruct the work of a new government. At the same time, the study presents possible counter-strategies available to the opposition parties, as well as their political and legal options for action.
