Watch: Videos urging Romanians to vote in the European elections go viral

While Romania is preparing for the European Parliament elections scheduled to take place later this May, several videos urging Romanians to vote went viral, reaching millions of views.

Although the elections for the European Parliament haven’t been very popular among Romanian voters so far, things are expected to change this year amid a general discontent with the local ruling coalition made up of the Social Democratic Party (PSD) and the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALDE). Specialists believe that a higher turnout at the upcoming European elections in Romania, scheduled for May 26, would tip the balance in favor of the opposition while affecting the PSD.
