BUDAPEST - Hungary’s ruling right-wing Fidesz party could win 56 percent of votes in the European parliamentary election, state television reported on Sunday, citing a survey by pro-government pollster Nezopont.
Orban, who is one of Europe’s hardliners on migration and who built a steel fence sealing off Hungary’s southern borders to keep out migrants, has framed the election as a choice between forces backing and opposing mass immigration.“I hope that there will be a shift in the European public arena in favor of those political parties who would like to stop migration,” Orban said on Sunday after casting his vote.
The survey on Sunday evening projected that his Fidesz party could win 14 of Hungary’s 21 seats in the 751-seat European Parliament.
