Sami si ustvarite mnenje. Vendar prepovedati najmočnejšemu kandidatu, da kandidira, in se pri tem sklicevati zgolj na lastno odločitev o prepovedi volitev, ki je temeljila na povsem napačnih podatkih, je sramota za demokracijo. Decembra lani se ustavno sodišče v odločitvi o prepovedi drugega kroga predsedniških volitev sklicevalo na tajne obveščevalne podatke, da naj bi Georgescuju pri prepoznavnosti pomagala TikTok kampanja, s katero pa Georgescu ni imel nič, pač pa jo je plačala vladajoča Liberalna stranka s slabim kandidatom, da bi škodovala kandidatu konkurenčne stranke, ki je dosegal višjo podporo v predvolilnih anketah od kandidata Liberalne stranke.
Torej Georgescu kot neodvisni kandidat naj bi imel koristi od medsebojnega obračuna dveh etabliranih strank, zaradi česar je ustavno sodišče prepovedalo drugi krog volitev, da Georgescu ne bi zmagal, zdaj se pa ustavno sodišče sklicuje na to svojo isto odločbo, čeprav temelji na napačni argumentaciji.

The document in which the Romanian Constitutional Court justifies its decision to bar Georgescu, who already won the first round of the presidential election in December and was running ahead of everyone else in recent polls by a wide margin, from running for president, is one of the most insane things I have ever read.
The text is very confused, the translation probably doesn’t help, but the argument the Court seems to make is that, in deciding whether someone can run for president, it has to check whether that person would threaten the country’s constitutional framework if he were elected and it claims that Georgescu will not defend democracy.
The only argument it gives to justify that claim is that the very same Court previously annulled the first round of the presidential election that Georgescu had won, which means that he didn’t respect the electoral procedure and in turn this ipso facto demonstrates that he violates the obligation to defend democracy
But the December ruling to which it refers, which annulled the first round of the election, mostly didn’t talk about Georgescu’s alleged violations of electoral legislation to justify the decision, but instead made ridiculous arguments based on what supposedly happened on social media during the campaign, such as the claim that “equality of opportunity” was not ensured on social media due to the “exploitation” of algorithm.
