The mayor of Budapest evaluated the result as follows: "The opposition parties lost two individual municipal representative mandates in today's election, they only managed to win in Újpest, the VII. and VIII. in the district, Fidesz won the representative seat in the district representative body. And even in Szeged, the Fidesz candidate won by a landslide."

According to the mayor, the results were disappointing, there is nothing to beautify this. He reduced the participation and then added: " the opposition voters punished the opposition parties with their absence for the performance they have been producing since April 3."
According to Karácsony, they received a message from their constituents: "which of us is the biggest little presented since April 3 is not going anywhere. They told us that the opposition attitude of "if we can't defeat Fidesz, let's defeat each other " will lead nowhere.
"The voters sent me a wake-up call!" - added the co-chairman of Párbeszéd, Karácsony, in his opinion, "the last "small circles" of freedom, the local governments, the free cities, the free districts, cannot rely on this political achievement."
