Resistance See other Resistance Articles Title: In Latest Humiliation For Brussels, Viktor Orban Wins Hungary Elections In Landslide Victory In the latest embarrassment for Europe's establishment, the ostracized - by Brussels - Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán, who has waged a relentless vendetta against George Soros in the past year, just won a landslide victory in Hunary's parliamentary elections. Earlier on Sunday, 8 million Hungarians went to the polls to elect a 199-seat parliament in the 2018 general elections, which many expected would see the incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orbán- and his right-wing Fidesz party - win his third consecutive term. And, as covered here on numerous prior occasions, Orban's campaign had been centered around anti-immigration policies, an especially sensitive topic not only in Hungary and Central Europe, but across the old continent. His main competitors are Gergely Karacsony, a candidate for the Socialist and Dialogue parties; and Gabor Vona of the far-right nationalist Jobbik party, or rather were because according to the Hungarian election office website, Prime Minister Orban’s ruling Fidesz party has won a sweeping, landslide victory according to preliminary results with 69% of the votes counted. Fidesz with 49.5% of party-list votes, matching most pre-election opinion polls Formerly far-right Jobbik second with 20% of list votes, Socialists at 11.9% LMP and DK parties also poised to clear parliamentary threshold based on partial count. In other words, Orbán's Fidesz party has secured an absolute majority, and may even reach as much as a two-thirds majority of 133 seats, enough to pursue a constitutional amendment, making life for George Soros in Hungary unbearable. Poster Comment: According to preliminary results with 93 percent of votes counted, National Election Office data projected Fidesz to win 133 seats, a tight two-thirds majority in the 199-seat parliament. Nationalist Jobbik was projected to win 26 seats, while the Socialists were projected as third with 20 lawmakers. Two smaller leftist parties, DK and LMP, won nine and eight seats respectively. That means the second largest vote getting party got 26 seats and was to the right of Orban. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest

It is clear that the conservative and anti-immigrant leader has taken control of the government in Hungary. After so many years behind the iron curtain it is good to see them pick themselves up by their bootstraps and carry on. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
Exactly what countries is Soros a citizen of? So far, I'm counting USA and Hungary. Probably France as well.
