Controversy
editDuring the campaign period of the 2018 national election, the Pestszentlőrinc local government issued a Christmas calendar by public funds in early December 2017, in which the photo of Kucsák was featured on all pages of the issue, including a crossword, where the solution was the name of the politician.[3]
