Pro-Western candidate Nicusor Dan has unexpectedly beaten hard-right populist George Simion in the Romanian election.
Mr Simion, 38, and his rival - a centrist who’s mayor of Bucharest - faced off in the second round of the contest.
According to the official tally, Mr Dan was leading by nearly nine percentage points with more than 98% of the votes counted.
They aren’t enough votes remaining for Mr Simion to make a comeback.
I’m fine with the LNP being out of power for a decade. They are trash. They’re Labor-lite. I’ve literally never voted for them.
