It’s the Globalists’ biggest nightmare.
After all, the EU-liberal establishment forced Romania to cancel the first round of the presidential election that took place last November, proceeding to arrest and indict frontrunner Calin Georgescu, and finally banning him from running in today’s ‘redo’.
The last thing the European ‘powers that be’ were expecting was that another right-winger, George Simion, would sweep the race and come out on top – but that’s exactly what’s happening.
Reuters reported:
“Romanian hard-right candidate George Simion was ahead in a presidential election first round, followed by centrist candidate Crin Antonescu, an exit poll showed on Sunday.
A separate exit poll put Simion in first place and centrist candidates Antonescu and Nicusor Dan neck and neck in second.”
Simion, leader of the Alliance for the Union of Romanians, had come in fourth place in the annulled vote, but he inherited Georgescu’s votes and surged to first place.
He is now projected to win the first round of Romania’s presidential election, with more than 30 percent of the vote.
Politico reported:
“It was not immediately clear which candidate would place second, with establishment figurehead Crin Antonescu and centrist Bucharest Mayor Nicușor Dan battling to face Simion in the runoff. Former Prime Minister Victor Ponta is set to finish in fourth place, the exit polls say.
The exit poll projections are not official results, which are expected to start coming in from Romania’s election authority in the next few hours. The exit polls also do not reflect votes cast by the Romanian diaspora abroad.”
“The election results are being closely watched in Brussels and Washington, as Romania has become the latest battleground between the hard right and political establishment. Simion has unapologetically badged himself as a supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump’s ‘Make America Great Again’ movement.”
[…] Simion hoped to harness the election support Georgescu built last year by saying he’ll have a job for him, even possibly as prime minister.”
