Gábor Cserna (born October 27, 1969)[1] is a Hungarian politician, member of the National Assembly (MP) from Fejér County Regional List between 2011 and 2014.[2] He was already Member of the Parliament from 2002 to 2006. He is the current Mayor of Dunaújváros since October 2010.[2]

Political career

He joined Fidesz in 1988. He was elected local government representative of an individual constituency of Dunaújváros in October 1990 and held the office until December 1994. He was on the Education Committee. He has presided over the Dunaújváros branch of Fidesz from 1994, and has also been on the party's Fejér County presidium. He was again elected as an individual representative to the Assembly of Dunaújváros City with County Status for the term 1998-2002. He chaired the Education Committee from October 1998.[1] In the parliamentary elections in April 2002 he won a mandate from the joint Fejér County list of Fidesz and the Hungarian Democratic Forum (MDF). He started his legislative work in the Cultural and Press Committee and the Committee on Civil Organisations. In December of the same year he resigned from his membership in the Committee making decisions on support to civil organisations.[2]

Cserna was elected Mayor of Dunaújváros in the local elections in October 2010. He replaced András Kálmán (MSZP) in that position. He became a member of the National Assembly in March 2011, when MP István Mikola resigned, who was appointed Hungarian Ambassador to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).[2]

Sexuality

According to some rumors Gábor Cserna's sexual orientation is homosexual. These rumors have circulated that 10 years ago Cserna's wife caught him cheated her with an other man. After that his wife abused him to required hospitalization. However Cserna said to ATV.hu that is a well-structured urban legend with the aim of discrediting him. According to the webpage Cserna has a strong opposition within the party and the Fidesz majority eroded in the General Assembly.[3]
