Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's Fidesz party is favored to win Hungary's parliamentary elections by a wide margin on Sunday, with a left-wing coalition and the far-right Jobbik party vying for second place, according to AP. Orban, who is seeking his third term, said he hoped for a heavy turnout to give legitimacy and a clear mandate for the future. "It allows the government to do a more vigorous job," Orban told reporters after casting his ballot in a school near his home high in the Buda hills. "I hope very many people will vote so no matter what kind of government there will be, it will start its job with large popular support."
