Profile of voters in the first round: George Simion vs. Nicușor Dan, according to the INSCOP Research poll conducted on voting day across Romania (not including diaspora)

George Simion was voted by more men than women, by more people in the 30-44 age category than the rest of the categories, and by significantly more people with primary education than with higher education.

Nicușor Dan was voted for equally by men and women, by significantly more 18-29 year-olds than other categories, and by significantly more voters with higher education than with secondary or primary education.

George Simion received significantly more votes than Nicușor Dan across all voter categories except 18-29 year-olds and voters with higher education.

,,If we have the same turnout as on May 4, the outcome of the final is clear. Very clear. But if the turnout is significantly higher (by 1.5 to 2 million votes) on May 18 compared to May 4, then the final is played.

Any other strategy is poetry. Also good in times of tight, but with no concrete effect on electoral dynamics.

And no, we are not yet in Miorița because anything is possible, even changing a destiny that now seems implacable. Let's be optimistic!

But regardless of the outcome, the democratic result of the vote of the majority of citizens must be respected, just as any voter must be treated with respect, even if the options do not suit some or others.'' Remus Ștefureac, INSCOP director
