<p>Far-right politician <strong>Călin Georgescu</strong> is still the frontrunner in Romania’s May presidential elections, according to the latest poll carried out by Verified for the consultants of the ruling coalition’s presidential candidate, Crin Antonescu.</p>

<p>Thus, if the 2025 presidential elections were to take place next Sunday, most of those polled would vote for Călin Georgescu (41.1%), followed by Crin Antonescu (18.5%) and Bucharest mayor Nicușor Dan (independent, 12.4%), <a href="https://www.libertatea.ro/stiri/sondaj-verifield-calin-georgescu-crin-antonescu-nicusor-dan-5222382" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Libertatea.ro</a> reported.</p>

<p>The candidate of the reformist party USR, Elena Lasconi, would get only 7%, while the leader of the far-right party SOS Romania, Diana Sosoaca, would not get more than 3%.</p>

<p>The survey, conducted between February 14-18, assumes that Georgescu will run.</p>
