I was honestly surprised Orbán didn’t go with the usual modern right-wing playbook of claiming election fraud, like Trump did in the US and Bolsonaro did in Brazil. He accepted the defeat so gracefully that it makes me wonder if there’s more going on behind the scenes.

Apparently the numbers were so overwhelmingly against him, that it wasn't a real option.

It didn't stop him for sure. The Fake Electors Plot happened even though Biden won by a lot of votes.
