The mayor of Buzău, who supports Nicușor Dan: “It does not seem like a bad idea”

The mayor of Buzău, at the same time the first vice-president of the PSD-Buzău County Branch, Constantin Toma, who announced his support for Nicușor Dan, said, in a dialogue with Hotnews, that the proposal was not his. Asked if this step is taken to support Nicușor Dan, he denied this.

“It has no connection, because the proposal is not coming from me,” Toma said.

“It does not seem like a bad idea. To come and the young people to participate actively, as actors, in the voting process, in a voting section, to take a penny and see what the rules are,” said Toma.

At the presidential elections, the political parties that have representatives in the Romanian Parliament (PSD, PNL, gold, USR, UDMR, POT, SOS Romania) also have representatives in the polling stations. Those who want to ensure that the electoral process is carried out correctly, but do not want to affiliate politically, can register as voting observers.
