Presidential Election – The first round of the presidential election takes place on Sunday in Romania, with over 18 million voters being expected to hit the polls in the nearly 19,000 polling stations organized in the country. According to the Permanent Electoral Authority (AEP), voter turnout stood at over 41% after the first 10 hours of voting, which means that about 7.4 million voters cast their vote, over 1.3 million voters more in urban centers compared to the rural area. Over 616,000 Romanians have so far voted in the 951 polling stations open abroad. The voting process abroad started on Friday, where voter turnout was subpar, Radio Romania correspondents say. The data provided by AEP show that the number of people who cast their vote in the first two days of the election was 223 thousand, of whom over 4,000 opted for postal voting. The largest mobilization was in Great Britain, where over 42 thousand Romanians have voted. They are followed by Romanians in Germany, Italy and Spain. 13 candidates are enrolled in the presidential race, 9 representing political parties and 4 independents. Most ideological trends are represented in the competition, from Social-Democrats to Liberals, and from pro-Europeans to populist ultra-nationalists and sovereigntists. The second round of the presidential election is scheduled for December 8. The parliamentary election is scheduled on December 1, the National Day of Romania. We recall that on June 9, local and European Parliament elections took place in Romania.
