A candidate was declared the winner in any electoral college where they obtained more than 50% of the vote. Seats where no candidate won an outright majo ...

They were the first held after the adoption of Constitution of Romania, a permanent constitution via a referendum held 1991 Romanian constitutional referendum, the previous winter.

An ethnic party is a political party that overtly presents itself as the champion of one ethnic group or sets of ethnic groups. Ethnic parties make such representation central to their voter mobilization strategy.

Scientific definitions ''Ethnic party is defined here as an organization authorized to compete in local or national elections; the majority of its leadership and membership identify themselves as belonging to a nondominant ethnic group, and its electoral platform includes demands and programs of an ethnic or cultural nature.Donna Lee Van Cott, From Movements to Parties in Latin America.
