[1][2] On 6 December 2024, 48 hours before the second round of the 2024 presidential elections, the elections were annulled by the Romanian Constitutional Court, because of suspected Russian intervention on behalf of independent candidate, Călin Georgescu, who took a shock lead in the first round with 23%.On 20 December, an investigation was published showing that PNL had seemingly paid for one of the TikTok campaigns.Opposition leaders (most prominently George Simion and POT Leader Anamaria Gavrilă) called the cabinet illegitimate and for the resignation of incumbent president Klaus Iohannis.[6][7][8] The date of the first round had been speculated for 23 March 2025 with the runoff two weeks later (6 April 2025).As a result, the following is a list of persons that have explicitly affirmed interest in running or not.
