Reuters (Bucharest) – Romania's top court has annulled the results of the first round of the presidential election, citing allegations of Russian interference. The court announced on Friday that the entire election process, originally set to conclude this weekend, will need to be re-run.
The second round had been scheduled for Sunday and voting has already begun in polling stations abroad. It would have pitted Calin Georgescu, a far-right, pro-Russian candidate, against pro-European Union centrist leader Elena Lasconi.
