00:00The ruling Social Democratic Party would have won Romania's parliamentary elections with 26% of the votes,
00:05according to initial exit polls after voting stations closed.
00:09The Ultra-Nationalist Alliance for the Union of Romanians would have been in second place with up to 20% of the votes,
00:15and in third place the ruling National Liberal Party with around 15%.
00:19In this context, analysts had expected a shift to the right in Romania
00:23after the unexpected victory of Călin Iorgescu in the presidential election a week ago.
00:28The recount should ratify the polls, which last week failed because they did not predict Iorgescu's victory.
