There should even be a majority for PSD&AUR&UDMR possible! But it's unlikely, of course, that the nationalists and the Hungarian minority can cooperate. So it will have to be a shaky coalition of 3 (in fact rather 4) parties: PNL & USR-Plus & UDMR.
Good, that Ponte and ALDE-allies will be gone.

Only 1/3 participated - by far a new record! Seemingly not few rural elderly abstained, what makes the PSD-NonDefeat even more impressive.

Sharp losses are reported for PNL especially in their StrongHold TransSylvania. No idea, whether they are relatively (= % of last time) above/below national average.

The success of AUR means, that Romania has once again a clearly nationalistic party on the stage (PSD aside).
What leaves over in Europe (apart from Farage and LePen, who have no MPs) not more than Ireland and Malta - am i missing others?

...and inevitably the leader of PES-member PSD has already announced his intention to cooperate with AUR...

ExPresident Basescu claims, that the Moldovians will bring his PMP into parliament. But - if the published numbers in NewsPapers are correct! - only 0.17% are uncounted and PMP would need 0.18%. Contrary to AUR they performed very strongly in Moldova, though: With AUR the sensationalism of the media has a new ObJect. It was already revealed, that AUR's leader in district Bihor is in court for leading a gang, that "has successfully broken up encrusted structures" (=CashMachines...)

PSD seemed to be totally dead this time, but the local elections were already not so terrific for them An institute had made a ProJection for this GeneralElection based on the results of the LocalElections in summer:

Remarkably strong correlation between the PSD and Wallachia + Moldavia

I will be interested to see how the parties representing minoroties fair. Romania is unique in having seats reserved for small groups which are not required to pass the 5% barrier for representation, and the figure varies. There were 17 in the last parliamet; how many in the next and how influential are they likely to be? There are obvious minority seats such as those for the long-standing, though rapidly shrinking, German-speaking community, Lippovan-Russians community, Greeks, Armenians, Poles, Banat-Bulgarians, Jewish, Roma, Dobrujan Tatars but also more recent tiny groups such as Macedonians also Italians with some history or settlement. Small votes with lots of power.

Interesting...looking at the distribution of red on those maps, I can just about make out Romania's pre-WWI boundaries on them (c.f. election maps of Poland for observation of similar phenomenon).

On a subnational level, Germany has it in Schleswig-Holstein, and that has caused a fair bit of controversy down the years. The interesting thing about Germany's Romanians is that they have provided the current president and its only winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.

I hadn't realised the Romanian Parliament was voted in by alligators rather than humans. It would explain a few things about Bucharest, which is one of very few places I've visited that I wouldn't go back to.

President Klaus only stayed in Romania because he is married to a Romanian . His parents emigrated to Germany.
