Asked in which direction Romania is going, 69% of the respondents replied that “in a wrong direction”, while only 20% indicated “a good direction”.

The data were collected between April 3 and 10, by the CATI method, on a sample of 1214 respondents, the maximum margin of error being +/- 2.8% at a level of 95%. The Course Sub polling Institute is owned by former journalist Iosif Buble.

Another survey published on Sunday, April 13, presents a different scenario for tour I. According to the latest survey conducted by Sociopol, if next Sunday the first round of presidential elections, George Simion and Victor Ponta would get the most votes.

The figures thus contradict the forecasts of the specialists, according to which the scandals triggered around several candidates, as is the case of Victor Ponta, or their parties, such as gold led by George Simion, could reduce their chances of tour II.
