Two weeks before pivotal elections, Hungary’s young voters are rallying behind Péter Magyar’s Tisza party and posing the strongest challenge to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in years. Polls show Tisza dominates among voters under 30, while older voters are with Orbán. Analysts say young people seek better economic opportunity and an end to corruption and autocratic rule. The generational gap could be a decisive factor in the April 12 election. Hungary was rocked by a political scandal in 2024 that sparked protests and activated a voting cohort that for at least two decades had largely avoided politics.
