Elections in Hungary

Elections in Hungary are held at two levels:

  • on the central level there are general elections to elect the members of the unicameral National Assembly every 4 years, and European Parliament elections held every 5 years; and
  • on the so-called self-governmental level, there are elections to elect local authorities (municipal councils, mayors, county assemblies, capital city assembly) and minority self-governmental authorities (on different levels).

There are no other direct elections (the president, for example, is elected indirectly), but there are referendums on both the local and national levels.
