LIVE: An INSCOP survey on the day of the vote (it is not an exit poll) indicates PSD as the winner, followed by AUR, PNL, USR, SOS and POT, and UDMR would be on the verge of entering Parliament. Another exit poll conducted by CURS shows the same hierarchy: PSD followed by AUR, and PNL and USR almost on a par. And the CURS exit poll estimates that the extremist parties SOS and POT will enter parliament. Important: DO NOT include diaspora votes and are valid for 7pm voting options.
If the two sociological researches will be confirmed by the official count, it means that three extremist parties will enter the party: AUR (led by George Simion), SOS (Diana Șoșoacă) and POT (Ana Maria Gavrilă).
The data shows that it will be extremely difficult to achieve a government majority from two parties, with a minimum of three needed. However, the future president of Romania, who will appoint the candidate for prime minister, will be decisive.
The INSCOP poll on the day of the vote (it is not an exit poll) shows PSD as the winner, followed by AUR, PNL, USR and SOS.

INSCOP Research conducted a “Voting Day Survey” (not an exit poll) on the territory of Romania (without diaspora) as part of an internal experiment to test and validate this research tool. The survey is representative of the voting population residing in Romania. The sample is 3100 people. The maximum allowed data error is +/- 1.8%. Note that this is a much larger sample than those used in regular surveys.
