Summary
After the overwhelming victory of Magyar's bourgeois Tisza party in the parliamentary elections on 12. In July 2005, she took number 8 in the chess world rankings - and is thus the only woman who made it among the top ten chess players. In 2014 she finished her career in top chess.
Furthermore, Hungarian chess grandmaster Judit Polgar has rejected the nomination offered to her by Prime Minister Magyar for the presidency.

While the Tisza faction in Parliament still stated that it wanted to “unanimously” support Polgar’s candidacy, numerous supporters and some experts criticized the lack of a broader social debate about the future staffing of the highest state office. Parliament must now elect a successor to Sulyok within 30 days.
In addition, Magyar had proposed the 49-year-old Polgar on Sunday for the highest state office. He had merely expressed his hope that Polgar would accept the offer.
