I love fact-checking the BBC ![]()
Mostly a good article - two points:

“Officials” have not said anything, as they are only responsible for announcing the final results. The BBC is mistaking TV anchors for “officials”.

Hofer is a right-wing populist; calling him far-right is exaggerating the problem.
British media referring to Hofer as potentially being Europe’s “first far-right head of state” sounds very strange given the present Hungarian and Polish governments.
