23 noiembrie 2009

Information in English

Nearly 13,740 eligible to vote Romanians have cast a vote in the polling stations opened abroad by Sunday at noon, the Foreign Ministry said. The highest turnout was in the neighbouring Republic of Moldova, namely in the four polling stations in the capital Chisinau, the ministry added.

Voting ended in New Zealand at 12 p.m., in Auckland-based polling station, where the Romanians living outside the country had been the first to cast a ballot. Voting also ended at midday in the three polling stations set up in Australia, where around 400 Romanian citizens cast a ballot.

The number of the Romanians based abroad who have exercised their voting right is much higher compared to the previous elections for European Parliament held in this June, when just 1,700 persons had cast a ballot by noon. The presidential voting had begun for five hours by 12 p.m. in Romania and in another 47 polling stations outside the country.
