The parliamentary group of the small liberal Free Democrats (SZDSZ) did not succeed in electing its head on Monday, as both candidates received an equal number of votes, the chairman of the group’s meeting told MTI.
SZDSZ head Gabor Fodor and outgoing group leader Janos Koka, the two candidates, received nine votes each, while one vote proved to be invalid.
Koka will stay in office as group leader until another vote is held at a later date.
