Destroy all cross-border postal votes immediately! - this is what Péter Márki Zay demands in his Facebook post. The prime ministerial candidate of the left justifies all this by saying that, in his opinion, Fidesz failed abroad with electoral fraud, writes Áron Ternovácz in Magyar Nemzet.
The mayor of Hódmezővásárhely does not support his claim with anything, he only talks - without evidence - that discarded ballots were found in Transylvania. The story is particularly interesting in the light of the fact that the campaign team of Péter Márki-Zay fell just today with the biggest election fraud in the history of Hungary after the regime change (Bajnai Gordon's DatAdat group sent text messages to more than a million voters using an illegally obtained database),
so it is certainly just a communication trick with which they now want to cover up their failure.
This is also supported by the fact that the entire left is behind this communication template: among others, Ferenc Gyurcsány , Gergely Karácsony and Krisztina Baranyi are also campaigning with it on social media. It cannot be ruled out that the parties of the rainbow coalition will prepare in advance for a possible electoral defeat and to explain it due to the polls that yielded unfavorable results for them.
It is not the first time that Péter Márki-Zay has turned public opinion against our compatriots abroad during his campaign for prime minister in Hergeli, simply because they do not agree with him. It is worth noting that even after the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, the left-wing prime ministerial candidate complained that the majority of Transcarpathian Hungarians fleeing to Hungary are pro-Russian and Fidesz sympathizers , so it will be easier for them to vote for the governing parties on April 3. Then he went even further and said that the government discriminates against the Hungarians of the Carpathian Basin, the Hungarians living in Western Europe, because the latter are informed, and therefore they would not vote for Fidesz.
It is also memorable that in an earlier statement he called those with dual citizenship "postal voting zombies".
Regarding the peace march on October 23 last year, he said to Klubrádio: "...that's why we had to bring hundreds of buses from across the border, many of whom didn't even know where or for what purpose they had come to Budapest. "
It is worth noting that even during the coronavirus pandemic, the left hoped for political benefit from its propaganda campaign against our compatriots abroad. Tímea Szabó, in her parliamentary speech at the time, complained, for example, that the government had sent ventilators and masks to areas inhabited by Hungarians abroad. But during this time, the entire rainbow coalition espoused similar rhetoric: They are coming! Ágnes Vadai was outraged at the online press conference of the Democratic Coalition (DK). Then his party colleague, Gergely Arató, continued: We do not think it is fair to put the decision on the fate of the homeland in the hands of people who have never lived here, do not raise children here, do not pay taxes here, and do not bear the consequences of their decisions in any way.
