A new survey has found that the ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrats alliance has maintained its lead with 50 percent of decided voters declaring their support.

In the latest Nézőpont poll, support for the non-parliamentary liberal opposition Momentum Movement stood at 13 percent, while both the conservative Jobbik party and the leftist Democratic Coalition (DK) received 10 percent.

Five percent backed the Socialist-Párbeszéd alliance, well below the 10 percent threshold needed to get into parliament on a joint party list, and 4 percent supported the green LMP party.

As for the other non-parliamentary parties, the satirical Two-tailed Dog Party (MKKP) and radical nationalist Mi Hazánk chalked up 4 percent and 3 percent respectively, below the 5 percent threshold for seats.

Nézőpont interviewed a representative sample of 1,000 respondents over the phone between January 10 and 16.
