The President was elected indirectly by the legislature. Vote percentages use valid assembly ballot outcomes, including recorded votes against a sole candidate; these are not shares of national voters. Public turnout remains null. Candidate affiliation is distinct from parliamentary nomination/support. Each ballot has its own denominator; failed ballots are not marked as elected outcomes. András Baka was an independent nominated by Tisza. The official government announcement confirms 140 votes for and six against. The election date is 11 August, distinct from his 19 August entry into office.
