Young Hungarian voters may oust Orbán.

France24

Young Hungarian voters are considering supporting a new candidate. This is a challenge for the current leader, Viktor Orbán. The election could change Hungarian politics.

Viktor Orbán has been the prime minister for 16 years. Recent polls show many young people, like 20-year-old Ákos, want a change. Péter Magyar's campaign is popular with young voters who want a ‘modern, European Hungary.’ Older voters still support Orbán because of his stability and views on war. The election’s outcome is uncertain and depends on how many young people vote.
