    December 6, 2020 UPDATE

    Elections update — The Social Democratic Party – PSD is likely to have won Sunday’s parliamentary elections in Romania. According to an exit poll from Romania, PSD obtained around 30% of the votes. The National Liberal Party got almost 29% followed by the Alliance Save Romania Union-PLUS (USR-PLUS) with almost 16%. Other parties that might enter Parliament are UDMR — the Democratic Union of Ethnic Hungarians in Romania, Pro Romania and PMP People’s Movement Party, all credited with 5% of the votes. A surprise in these elections is the possible entry in Parliament of the Alliance for Romanians’ Union AUR. Voter turnout was almost 32%. The PSD president Marcel Ciolacu said that, through Sunday’s vote, Romanians showed that change was needed and sanctioned the way the governing Liberals managed the pandemic. In turn, the PM Ludovic Orban said that the Liberal Party was both the moral and real winner of these elections. His statement is based on the fact that exit polls do not include the votes cast in the Diaspora, let alone the error margin. The result of the parliamentary elections shows that ‘reform in Romania cannot be achieved without the alliance USR-PLUS’ said Sunday evening the alliance co-president Dan Barna. The other co-president Dacian Ciolos said USR-PLUS was ready to start negotiations for setting up the government, but ruled out any collaboration with PSD. In the context of the pandemic, 136 senator and 329 deputy seats were up for election, including 4 deputies and 2 senators representing the Romanian Diaspora. The members of the future Parliament were voted on party lists, based on the proportional representation system.

  • Special measures for the election

    Special measures for the election

    On Sunday,
    December 6, Romanians will hit the polls to elect the Senators and Deputies who
    will be representing them for the next four years. Special measures related to
    the COVID-19 pandemic are already in place. According to the Permanent Election
    Authority, some 18 million eligible voters are expected to cast their votes.
    Some 740 thousand Romanians officially residing abroad are also expected to
    vote. Of these, over 39 thousand have opted for postal voting, while nearly 4
    thousand registered for physical voting in one of the polls opened abroad. In
    Romania, the authorities have set up 18 thousand voting polls.

    The vote will
    take place on Sunday, starting 7 AM and ending 9 PM. Unlike those at home,
    Romanians in the Diaspora will have two days to exercise their constitutional right,
    and will be able to vote starting Saturday in one of the 748 polls. Due to
    different timezones, the Foreign Ministry launched an interactive map of
    polling stations abroad, as well as a call center where Romanians living or
    residing abroad can receive accurate information. According to the Ministry,
    the map allows Romanian citizens to identify polling stations of their choice
    and plan their vote, so as to avoid the overcrowding of past years. In case
    some stations are relocated for pandemic-related reasons, the interactive map
    will provide real-time updates. Voters taking part in the election must observe
    a number of special health safety measures the authorities have introduced due
    to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    In Romania, authorities gave assurances the vote will
    take place in optimal conditions, as they have taken all measures to keep the
    risk of infection at a minimum. People living in quarantined areas will be able
    to cast their vote based on a signed declaration specifying the place and
    purpose of their movements, Prime Minister Ludovic Orban announced. Exempted to
    this rule will be people placed in quarantine following a decision of the local
    Directorate for Public Health. The latter will be able to vote by means of the
    mobile ballot box. The Central Election Bureau has certified four institutes
    and companies to conduct exit polls on Sunday. Exit poll results will be made
    public at 9 PM with the closure of polling stations. (V. Palcu)
