The sociologist Remus Ștefureac says that George Simion's strategy of avoiding debates can ensure access to the second round, but not to win the elections

Remus Ștefureac, director of INSCOP, emphasizes that George Simion's approach of running away from the debates may be effective to get a place in the second round, but it does not guarantee victory. In his opinion, the other candidates, such as Crin Antonescu and Victor Ponta, have balanced strategies, but it is essential for all candidates to appeal to a wider electorate. Ștefureac notes that although young people vote, the debate failed to address their issues, which could influence the results.
