Tisza Party Wins Historic Supermajority; Orbán Concedes Defeat
Péter Magyar's Tisza Party won Hungary's parliamentary election with 53.6% of the vote and 138 of 199 seats — a two-thirds supermajority enabling constitutional amendments. Viktor Orbán's Fidesz party collapsed to 37.8% and 55 seats. Voter turnout reached 79.6%, the highest since Hungary's 1990 free elections. Orbán conceded within hours, describing the loss as 'clear' and 'painful' after 16 consecutive years in power.
