Hungary's center-right wins first round

Hungary's center-right opposition party Fidesz has garnered 52.8% of the vote in the first round of the country's parliamentary elections.

The country's national election office OVI said that after processing 99% of the votes, all other parties have gained considerably less support.

The ruling minority Socialist Party gained 19.3% of the vote.

The final results from the first round have not been announced yet. The second round of the elections is scheduled for April 25.

Fidesz has secured 206 of 386 parliamentary seats and if it manages to increase the number to 258 seats in the second round, it will have a mandate to modify basic laws such as the constitution and change electoral law.
