The party of nationalist Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has taken the lead in partial results from the country’s general election, the national election office says.
With 63 percent of the votes counted, Orban’s Fidesz party had gained 55.16% of the vote versus 33.09% for the six-party opposition coalition in the national party list vote which determines 93 seats out of the 199-seat chamber.
Fidesz also enjoys a clear lead in the results for individual constituencies, which determine the rest of the seats.
