Hungarians are voting in a parliamentary election following a heated campaign dominated by debates on immigration.
Also being discussed are the measures taken by incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orban to change electoral laws and claw back freedoms from the media and civil society.
Voter turnout hit a 20-year high on Sunday, raising hopes among opposition parties that they would be able to prevent Orban from winning a second term.
