Bucharest mayor candidates react after first round of local elections
Blaga said as exit poll resuts were announced that he trusted PD-L would have half of the councilors at the Bucharest city hall. But he said he would not expect for himself an easy second round of elections against Oprescu.
For his part, Oprescu, placed second in elections for Bucharest mayor on Sunday, said he expected a better performance but said the eventual result was good enough, considering the low turnout.
Ludovic Orban, the Liberal candidate who came third in the Bucharest poll, said he was unpleasantly surprised by the exit-poll results. He said citizens would come to regret they did not show up and vote on Sunday because they'd have to choose between two evils in the second round.
