The 2022 Hungarian parliamentary election took place on the 8th of April, 2022.
Background
editElectoral system
editMembers of Hungarian National Assembly were elected by single transferable vote (STV) from 24 constituencies with between six and ten seats. Voters complete a paper ballot, numbering candidates 1, 2, 3, etc. in order of their preference. Ballot boxes are sent to the constituency count centre after polls close and are counted the following morning. Voters may mark as many or as few preferences as they wish. Each ballot is initially credited to its first-preference candidate but may be transferred on later counts to the next available preference where the first preference candidate is elected or eliminated.
