{{Politics of Romania}}

[[Romania]] elects on a national level a [[head of state]] – the president – and a legislature. The president is elected for a five-year term (after a change from four-year terms after the 2004 election). The [[Parliament of Romania|Romanian Parliament]] ({{langx|ro|Parlamentul României}}) has two [[bicameralism|chambers]]. The [[Chamber of Deputies (Romania)|Chamber of Deputies]] ({{langx|ro|Camera Deputaţilor}}) currently has 331 members (after the [[2020 Romanian legislative election|last legislative elections]]), elected for a four-year term by [[party-list proportional representation]] on [[closed list]]s. The [[Senate of Romania|Senate]] ({{langx|ro|Senatul}}) currently has 134 members (after the last legislative elections), elected for a four-year term by [[party-list proportional representation]] on [[closed list]]s.

Romania has a [[Multi-party system|multi-party]] system, with numerous [[Political party|parties]] in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form [[coalition government]]s.

On 25 November 2007, for the first time, Romanians [[2007 European Parliament election|elected]] their representatives to the [[European Parliament]].

On 6 December 2024, the Constitutional Court annulled the results of the first round of the [[2024 Romanian presidential election|presidential election]], after intelligence documents purporting to show Russian interference were declassified.<ref name=":8">{{Cite web |date=6 December 2024 |title=Romanian court cancels presidential election amid Russian influence fears |url=https://www.politico.eu/article/romania-court-cancels-presidential-election-runoff-tiktok-russian-influence-calin-georgescu/ |access-date=6 December 2024 |website=Politico |language=en-GB}}</ref>

== Electoral system ==

=== President ===
The [[President of Romania|President]] is elected in a two-round system for a five-year term. Candidates obtaining a majority of 50%+1 of all registered voters in the first round are declared the winner. If none of the candidates achieve this, then a [[Two-round system|run-off]] is held between the two contenders with the top scores in the first round. The candidate who obtains any majority of votes in the run-off is declared the winner.

The term of the president is five years. Between 1992 and 2004 the term was of four years, but was increased following the [[2003 Romanian constitutional referendum|2003 Constitutional referendum]]. One person can serve a maximum of two terms, that may be consecutive.

In order to be able to run for the [[President of Romania|Office of President]] a candidate must fulfill the following conditions: be a Romanian citizen, be at least 35 years of age (at least on the day of the election), and not have held the office for two terms since [[1992 Romanian presidential election|1992]], when the [[Constitution of Romania|1991 Constitution]] took effect.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cdep.ro/pls/dic/site.page?den=act2_2&par1=2#t2c2s0sba37|title=CONSTITUTION OF ROMANIA|website=cdep.ro}}</ref>

=== Parliament ===
[[File:Romania chamber of deputies colleges.svg|thumb|left|200px|The former (2008-2012) electoral colleges of the constituencies for the [[Chamber of Deputies (Romania)|Chamber of Deputies]]]]
[[File:Romania senate colleges.svg|thumb|left|200px|The former (2008-2012) electoral colleges of the constituencies for the [[Senate of Romania|Senate]]]]
The [[Chamber of Deputies (Romania)|Chamber of Deputies]]    and the [[Senate of Romania|Senate]] are elected in constituencies, by universal, equal, direct, secret, and freely expressed suffrage, on the basis of a list system and independent candidatures, according to the principle of [[party-list proportional representation|closed party list]] [[proportional representation]]. The option for an identical election system of the two Chambers of [[Parliament of Romania|Parliament]] confers them the same legitimacy, as both of them are the expression of the will of the same electoral body.

The two [[Legislative chamber|Chamber]]s have different numbers of members: the Chamber of Deputies is composed of 331 Deputies, and the Senate of 136 Senators. This differentiation is possible owing to the legal provision of a representation norm differing from one Chamber to the other and due to the seats allotted to the national minorities (a seat in the Chamber of Deputies for each minority) and to the Romanians living abroad (4 seats in the Chamber and 2 in the Senate). Thus, for the election of the Chamber of Deputies the representation norm is of one Deputy to 73,000 inhabitants,<ref name="RoElectoralLaw">{{cite web|url=http://www.roaep.ro/legislatie/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Legea-nr.-208-2015.pdf|title=Legea nr. 208 din 20 iulie 2015 privind alegerea Senatului şi a Camerei Deputaţilor, precum şi pentru organizarea şi funcţionarea Autorităţii Electorale Permanente|publisher=Romanian Permanent Electoral Authority|access-date=2015-11-25|language=ro}}</ref> and for the election of the Senate, of one Senator to 168,000 inhabitants.<ref name="RoElectoralLaw"/>

The number of Deputies and Senators to be elected in each [[constituency]] is determined on the basis of the representation norm, by relating the number of inhabitants in each constituency to the representation norm. There are 43 constituencies: 1 for each [[Counties of Romania|county]] and the Municipality of [[Bucharest]], and 1 for the Romanians living abroad.<ref name="RoElectoralLaw"/> In a constituency, the number of Deputies cannot be less than four, and that of Senators, less than two. The number of inhabitants taken into account is that existing on 1 January of the previous year,<ref name="RoElectoralLaw"/> published in the ''Statistical Yearbook of Romania''. If, at least five months before the election date, a [[census|general census]] has taken place, the number of inhabitants taken into account is that resulting from the census.

The [[election threshold|electoral threshold]] is for parties or candidates running individually 5% on national level or 20% in at least 4 constituencies, and 8-10% for coalitions or electoral alliances.<ref name="RoElectoralLaw"/>

The [[Constitution of Romania]] and the Election Law grant to legally constituted organizations of citizens belonging to national minorities, in case these could not obtain at the election at least one Deputy or Senator mandate, the right to a Deputy mandate, if they have obtained throughout the country a number of votes equal to at least 5% out of the average number of votes validly expressed throughout the country for the election of one Deputy.

The mandates assigned, under the conditions of the Election Law, to organizations of citizens belonging to national minorities are added to the Deputy mandates resulted from the representation norm.

=== European Parliament ===
To elect the 33 [[Member of the European Parliament|MEPs]] (35 MEPs between 2007 and 2009, 32 between 2014 and 2019), Romania is considered a single constituency. The system used is [[party list proportional representation|closed party list]] [[proportional representation]], with a 5% [[Election threshold|threshold]] of the votes.

=== Local elections ===
To elect the mayors the [[first past the post]] is used since 2012. The candidate who wins most of the votes is declared elected. A runoff is organised if the top two candidates have an equal number of votes.

For the office of Presidents of the County Councils, between [[2008 Romanian local election|2008]] and [[2012 Romanian local election|2012]], and again since [[2024 Romanian local elections|2024]], the [[first pass the post]] system was used. Until 2008 and again since [[2016 Romanian local election|2016]],<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.mediafax.ro/politic/legea-alegerilor-locale-modificata-primarii-alesi-intr-un-singur-tur-presedintii-cj-alesi-de-catre-membrii-cj-14217955|title=Legea alegerilor locale, modificată: Primarii, aleşi într-un singur tur. Preşedinţii CJ, aleşi de către membrii CJ|date=6 May 2016|access-date=23 June 2016|language=ro}}</ref> the County Council Presidents have been indirectly elected by each County Council.

To elect the Local, and County Councils, the [[party list proportional representation|closed party list]] [[proportional representation]], with a 5% [[Election threshold|threshold]] of the votes at the constituency level ([[Cities in Romania|city]], [[Communes of Romania|commune]] or [[Counties of Romania|county]]).

== Voting procedures ==
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:2014 Romanian presidential election, second round ballot paper.jpg|right|thumb|Example: Ballot paper for the run-off in the [[2014 Romanian presidential election]].]] -->

Irrespective of the type of election, the vote is done by using paper and manual counting. The voter is required to prove his/hers identity using the [[Identity card (Romania)|Identity card]] (or the previous version, the ''Identity bulletin''), or, for special reasons, the military ID or the [[Romanian passport|passport]]. After (s)he signs in the permanent, supplemental, or special electoral list, (s)he is handed a voting ballot (''buletin de vot'') and a stamp that reads '''VOTAT YYYY TTT''' (voted); YYYY stands for the year the election is held, and TTT for the type of elections to be held: '''L''' for local elections (including partial), '''P''' presidential elections, '''PE''' for [[European Parliament]] [[2009 European Parliament election in Romania|election]], '''R''' for referendums ('''R.V.U.''' was used in [[2007 Romanian voting system referendum|2007]]). For the general election, up to now, there was no additional type indicator, as it is granted most importance.

For the local and parliamentary elections, the voter can vote only at the polling station where (s)he has the permanent address (''domiciliu''), or the temporary residence (''flotant'') at least three months old. For the local election, the [[Romanians]] [[Romanian diaspora|outside Romania]] cannot vote. For the parliamentary election they vote the candidates for the 43rd constituency. For the [[European Parliament]] and [[President of Romania|presidential]] elections the voters can vote at a different pooling station than the local and parliamentary elections, but only if (s)he is not in the home-town the voting day. Since the [[2016 Romanian legislative election|2016 legislative election]] the Romanian electors residing abroad will be able to cast their [[postal voting|vote via mail]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mediafax.ro/politic/legea-votului-prin-corespondenta-a-fost-promulgata-de-presedintele-klaus-iohannis-14893089|title=Legea votului prin corespondenţă a fost PROMULGATĂ de preşedintele Klaus Iohannis|work=Mediafax.ro|date=2015-11-19|language=ro}}</ref>

The voting ballot is printed on newspaper paper, monochrome. All the candidates (or the full candidate list) are listed in a lottery type established order (first the parliamentary parties, than the non-parliamentary parties, and at the end, the independent candidates), each in a clearly designated rectangular that consists of the full party/alliance name and logo, and the full candidate name (or full list of candidates' names). Voters express their choice by stamping the rectangle of the party or independent candidate (s)he wishes to vote for. For referendums the same voting procedure is used. Each of the two options (YES – ''DA'' and NO – ''NU'') are in a 5×5&nbsp;cm square, YES on top and NO at the bottom, and the question voted for in the middle of the voting ballot.

== Fairness ==
[[Freedom House]] in 2024 wrote that the legal framework "generally provides for fair and competitive elections".<ref name="k724">{{cite web | title=Romania: Freedom in the World 2024 Country Report | website=Freedom House | date=2019-08-10 | url=https://freedomhouse.org/country/romania/freedom-world/2024 | access-date=2025-05-04}}</ref> According to the [[Bertelsmann Transformation Index]] in 2024, Romanian elections "are generally free and fair, with occasional evidence of fraud, unethical campaigning or voter manipulation, especially in poor rural areas."<ref name="d011">{{cite web | title=BTI 2024 Romania Country Report | website=BTI 2024 | url=https://bti-project.org/en/reports/country-report/ROU | access-date=2025-05-27}}</ref>
