VOT VOTE PARTIES Parliamentary Elections
Remus Ștefureac - director INSCOP Research: "Beyond the parliamentary representation, the cumulative voting intention for the parties that could form the parliamentary majority (PSD, PNL, USR, UDMR) is 50%, while the rest of the parliamentary parties in the likely opposition score around 44%. The parties not represented in the Parliament add 6%. AUR is the clear leader in terms of voting intention with a score similar to the one obtained by presidential candidate George Simion in Romania in the first round of the presidential elections (38%). PSD and PNL are fighting for second place with scores below 20%, PSD is declining, a phenomenon that can be explained in the context of successive electoral failures in the presidential elections, and PNL is slightly up, probably due to the return to the party's leadership of Ilie Bolojan, currently one of the most trusted political leaders together with Nicușor Dan. USR does not seem to capitalize electorally on a possible association with President Nicușor Dan, with a score similar to the one obtained in the elections, possibly also due to the relevant percentage obtained by SENS, a non-parliamentary party (4%). POT and SOS have a voting intention significantly below the score obtained in the parliamentary elections, given that the candidacy of George Simion helped AUR to attract some of the supporters of these parties."
