Hungarian PM Viktor Orban has
declared victory in a referendum on mandatory EU migrant quotas, despite
a low turnout that appeared to render it invalid.
But only 43% of the electorate voted, short of the 50% required to be valid.
Note EU-Digest: The Hungarian referendum was declared void and illegal because voter participation was 43 %, well below the allowed 50 % threshold and in reality a vote of no- confidence for the PM because the opposition had told their supporters to abstain from voting.
