2024 Romanian local elections

Local elections were held in Romania on 9 June 2024. They were the eighth post-1989 local elections in the country. The previous Romanian local elections in 2020 were won by the National Liberal Party (PNL), even though the Social Democratic Party (PSD) came in with significantly more County Council Presidents and mayors than the National Liberals. Therefore, the de facto winner of the previous Romanian local elections was the Social Democratic Party, in spite of the de jure victory of the National Liberal Party, according to popular vote and thereby overall political score. The 2020 USR-PLUS Alliance (which formally fused into a single political party and changed its name to the Save Romania Union) came in third with respect to popular vote yet failed to obtain an important nationwide representation (for mayors, local councilors or county councilors). Meanwhile, the PNL enlarged itself at local political level nationwide with the integral absorption of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALDE) during late March 2022. The main five political contenders in the 2024 Romanian local elections were the Social Democratic Party, the National Liberal Party, the Alliance for the Union of Romanians, the United Right Alliance, and the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania.
