The Pécs organization of the Socialist Party (MSZP) is currently collecting signatures for an assembly to elect new officials, reports Gondola.hu.
So far, 2,000 signatures have been collected, and support from 10% of the members is needed. However, it is not known how many members the party has, secretary István Komáromi told Magyar Nemzet.
Next month, the party will also launch a country-wide recruitment drive.
The All Hungary Media Group is firmly committed to freedom of expression and therefore applies a mostly "hands off" approach to comment moderation. Comments left by readers represent their own views and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or beliefs of the staff, editors or owner of the All Hungary Media Group, who nonetheless reserve the right to remove comments that are off-topic or which moderators consider to constitute "hate speech." Also note that in order to prevent spam we generally close entries off to comments several days after publication.
