Hungary heads to the polls on April 12, 2026, in what polls suggest is the most competitive election since Viktor Orbán returned to power in 2010. Péter Magyar's Tisza party leads Fidesz by double digits among decided voters, powered by a generational revolt among under-40s — but even an opposition victory would face a constitutional architecture designed to outlast any single election. The contest is a test case for whether democratic backsliding within the EU can be reversed once a governing party has spent 16 years rewriting the rules.
