“Nicușor, Nicușor” and “Simion is no longer”, echo during the counting of votes in front of the campaign headquarters of Nicușor Dan. Thousands of people celebrate the Boulevard of Regina Elisabeta possible victory of Nicușor Dan.
At this time, Elisabeta Boulevard is blocked by all those who went out to support the independent candidate in the presidential elections. “Let's make room for trolleybuses, consumes current,” says a gendarmerie. People withdrew, for a few moments, on the sidewalk, after which they returned to the road.
“We have president” is another message that was shouted from 9:00 pm, when Nicușor Dan was in Cișmigiu Park to see the exit. Even the messages to George Simion were not missing: “Simion is no longer,” shouted Dan.
“I voted with hope”
Joy and hope are two words that can describe what is happening tonight in the center of Bucharest.
“It's very beautiful. It was always beautiful. It is nice to go out for civilized people,” says Aurelian, who voted “with hope and fear.”
“It is the smallest thing I can do to contribute. It's an important moment and I have been very anxious in the last period,” says Maria, one of the thousands of people waiting for a new output of Nicușor Dan.
For Alexia, the events in front of the campaign headquarters give it a “fine energy. It feels the community and this gives me a lot of hope.”

At this moment, Regina Elisabeta Boulevard is blocked by the hundreds of supporters of Nicușor Dan, who extend from the campaign headquarters to Cișmigiu Park.
Even though both candidates claimed their victory, hundreds of Bucharest residents began to arrive at Nicușor Dan's campaign headquarters. “Europe” and “Nicușor” are chanting. They are encouraged by the fact that two exit poll studies have given the winner of the independent Pro European candidate.
