摘要：The elections for the European Parliament held on the 25th of November, 2007 represented an absolute novelty for Romania . Although there were 13 political parties and an independent candidate (László Tıkés) who took part in the elections (a significantly great number of participants for the political stage of such a country as Romania), the analysis of the primatial vote (the ratio between the percentages of the votes obtained by the first and second political groups) points out certain spatial configurations and hierarchies by areas (urban and rural) that are different from those characteristic to other previous elections. The accession to the European Parliament of only 5 parties (by exceeding the 5% threshold (DP, SDP, NLP, LDP and DUHR) and of independent László Tıkés proves that it is difficult for just one party to create a political majority at the parliamentary elections which are to come; on the other hand, the Romanian political stage seems to experience a process of sedimentation by the decrease of the number of political parties and structures which will rise up to the minimal electoral threshold at the future elections.
