Yet despite the international backing and Orwellian information campaign, the strategy, so far, does not appear to be working. Reliable polling suggests Orbán is on the ropes, with a widening gap – as much as 15 percentage points – between the governing party and the opposition. Even in Hungary’s skewed electoral system, this is a polling deficit that will be difficult to overcome. Polls also show that voters are much more concerned about the domestic topics (inflation, corruption, healthcare) the opposition is focused on than the geopolitical battles that Orbán talks up.
