Romania’s Chamber of Deputies Tuesday adopted 231 to 11 and 18 abstentions the law introducing the uninominal voting system.

 

Deputies accepted an amendment brought forth by PSD, according to which county council presidents are to be elected uninominally.

 

For the parliament elections, deputies maintained the electoral threshold at 5% or the gaining of six mandates for deputies and three for senators.
