In a Facebook post, the organization wrote: In the second half of 2024, a number of left-wing polling institutes claimed that the support of Péter Magyar's party not only matched, but even surpassed that of the government parties. However, the facts, i.e. the results of the by-elections of the last few weeks, refuted this in a row, they added.

It was recalled that the Fidesz-KDNP candidate in constituency 2 of Tolna county retained the parliamentary mandate of the governing parties in the interim parliamentary election with almost two-thirds of the votes (64 percent). The Fidesz-KDNP also triumphed with a convincing majority (45 percent) in the interim local government election in Veszprém.

And in Óbuda, which is traditionally considered a left-wing stronghold, the governing parties were able to conquer the vacant opposition mandate over the weekend with a 40 percent result, they added.

According to the institute's post, it also speaks for itself that the Tisza Party, ranked as the most popular party by the opposition research institutes, did not field a candidate in any of the elections, from which the conclusion can be drawn that the party did not dare to test its supposedly convincing support in a real survey of voters.

Although the left-wing pollsters regularly talk about the insecurity of the Fidesz camp and the weakening of its activity, they continued, the results of the January midterm elections show the opposite.

In other words, pro -government voters proved to be confident and active, and opposition parties were unable to obtain any mandate, whether they were measured in the capital or in the countryside.

The absence of the Tisza Party can be uncertain from its own supporters from the votes held earlier this year, while the commitment of pro -government voters has been proven in elections, according to the Analysis of the Perspective Institute.
