Parties discuss how to capture liberal voters
Representatives of four Hungarian political parties met in Budapest on Tuesday to hold a debate on how to capture the vote potential left behind with the fragmentation of the liberal Free Democrats.
Party leader Ildiko Lendvai for the governing Socialists, parliamentary group leader Tibor Navracsics for the centre-right opposition Fidesz, PM candidate Lajos Bokros for the conservative opposition Democratic Forum and Andras Schiffer, head of the small green party Politics Can Be Different (LMP)'s national list, all made claims on the liberal-minded electorate, each of them insisting they have something to offer for them.
However, the politicians could not entirely agree on exactly who the liberal voters might be.

Parties discuss how to capture liberal voters?
Simple. Why don't Viking and Vándorló just post their details here and save these parties all the trouble? That should pretty much capture the whole SZDSZ/MDF vote.
Anyone could be coaught in something lie that
