Cas Mudde, assistant professor at the School for Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia, said Jobbik had achieved the strongest showing in the past few years for any far-right party in the EU and that the only far-right party on the continent that had performed better was Switzerland's People's party which won 26.6% of the vote.
Jobbik has pledged to create jobs, be tough on crime, renegotiate state debt and hold a referendum on EU membership. While it denies being racist, it provides a lightning rod for suspicion among some Hungarians towards the Roma and Jews.
