Abstract. – The results of the local elections in Harghita County, 5th June
2016. The article intends to present
the territorial distribution of the people’s electoral choices at the 2016 Local
Elections. Based on the official
statistical data from the Central Electoral Bureau, we analysed the electoral
decisions for mayors, local and county
councillors. Therefore, we created several tables containing a series of
indicators for each administrative-territorial
unit in Harghita: the total number of voters; total of valid votes; the name of
the candidate who won the mayoral
seat; its political affiliation; the number and percentage of valid votes, as
well as the number of voting stations.
After analysing the data, a map was created, depicting the territorial
distribution of mayors for all 67 administrative
units that make up the County of Harghita, according to their political
affiliation. The novelty of these elections - the
chairman or president of the county council was not elected by the people, but
was designated by indirect vote, from
the ranks of the county councillors. We would also like to mention the fact
that, several months prior to the elections,
attempts were made to modify the Electoral Code in order to reintroduce two
voting rounds, but eventually these
demands were not validated by the Romanian Constitutional Court. In Harghita,
the people elected 67 mayors, with
the following affiliations: DUHR (47), SDP (7), HCP (5), independents (5), the
HCP-HPPT (2), and NLP (1). Out
of the 837 county council seats most went to DUHR (530), followed by HCP (77),
HPPT (68), SDP (53), NLP and
the HCP-HPPT alliance with 33 mandates each, IC (24), LDEP (8), NDP and POL (2
mandates each), while GRP,
GP, HPP-LS, CDNPP, PMP, RP-PE, DARP won one seat each. Harghita County Council
is currently comprised of
30 councillors (18 DUHR representatives, 4 HCP, 3 SDP, 3 HPPT, and 2 NLP) and
its president (Borboly Csaba),
member of the DUHR.
