The proportion of undecided rose to 41%. Only 46% of them said they would’ve go vote now.

Young people are less and less interested in politics, only 27% of them said they’re interested in these issues. Most often, corruption, lies, fraud, Orban, Viktor and sucks words crossed their minds about politics.

47% of the students responding think democracy is better than any other political systems. This ratio has slightly increased compared to the previous survey. However, it’s still very low, since the number of those who stand for democracy doesn’t reach half of the students.
