Repeated presidential election in Romania
Romania citizens voted on Sunday in the second round of repeated presidential elections. Voting took place after in December last year, the Constitutional Court (SK) annulled the first round of presidential elections of November 24, 2024. The reason for this decision were allegations against one of the candidates – Calina Georgescu, who then won the first place – for abuse in the campaign and breaking the principles of fair election competitors, as well as support from the “external actor” (Russia).
On Sunday, 19 million people were entitled to vote, including over a million abroad. 19440 polling stations were created in Romania, and 965 abroad.
