The Romanian Social Democratic Party, or PSD, was surpassed in terms of voting intentions by the National Liberal Party, or PNL, for the first time in six years, after it voted for the dismissal of the Ilie Bolojan government together with the far-right Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) party, according to a recent INSCOP survey .  As the leader of the party, Ilie Bolojan’s popularity helped PNL reach 20% in voting intentions, while the Social Democrats fell into third with 17.5% support. AUR, meanwhile, maintained its dominant leadership position with 38% support.  PNL’s partners, the Save Romanian Union Party (USR), are also in decline, falling to 10%, while the minority Hungarian party UDMR remains in its usual range of 3–5%. The INSCOP survey is particularly relevant, considering talks of snap elections if a majority cannot be reached in Parliament to back a new government.
