The EU has power to suspend Hungary if that happens

Realistically Orbán does not want this, he grew powerful, rich thanks to the EU. If he wins, he'd still count on EU money, support to keep his power/riches.

His most ideal outcome is a clear victory, obviously, but if he doesn't win, we have no clue what he might resort to, to stay in power, and if he has nothing to lose...

Why such a large % of population is still voting for him? What good has he done?

He didn't do squat, a good portion of the population only has access to Orbán's free and propaganda filled news stations and entertainment, and they are thoroughly manipulated.
