🇷🇴🗳⚡️ Broken down by map at 98.6% counted.

Crin Antonescu managed to flip Bihor (BH) from George Simion largely thanks to the Hungarian minority and Nicușor Dan flipped Cluj (CJ) thanks to the city of Cluj-Napoca who has a reputation for being the most liberal-progressive urban area in Romania.

Nicușor Dan also won Bucharest.
