BUDAPEST, Hungary — Prime Minister Viktor Orban declared victory in Sunday’s national elections, claiming a mandate for a fourth term as a partial vote count predicted a strong lead for his right-wing party.
In a 10-minute speech to Fidesz party officials and supporters at a Fidesz election night event in Budapest, Orban addressed a crowd cheering “Viktor!” and declared it was a “huge victory” for his party. “We won a victory so big that you can see it from the moon, and you can certainly see it from Brussels,” Orban said.
While votes were still being tallied, it appeared clear that the question was not whether Orban’s Fidesz party would take the election, but by how much. With nearly 75% of votes counted, it appeared possible that Fidesz would win another constitutional majority.
