In Romania there are 18,248,414 people voting, announced the Central Electoral Commission.
The number of people able to vote in parliamentary elections on December the 9th is with 44,000 less than the number of voters in the referendum of President Traian Basescu's dismissal in summer.
BEC released Thursday the voting section organized for the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate on December the 9th, on constituencies and localities, with the number of voters per polling subordinated station.
According to the electoral calendar, three days before the election are available to mayors in triplicate copies of the permanent electoral lists by territorial structures of the Directorate for Personal Records and Database Management.
No later than Friday it will be distributing ballots, or electoral materials needed to precinct electoral presidents.
Wednesday, President Traian Basescu asked the government not to create conditions for election fraud.
The President asked the executive to make public the number of Romanian citizens voting in parliamentary elections on Sunday.
In his opinion, not stating such data creates conditions for election fraud.
In response, Prime Minister Victor Ponta said Wednesday night that the vote abroad will be very fair, because all institutions have taken the necessary technical ability to do so.
