Basescu said Wednesday, in his address to Parliament, that it is the moral obligation of the majority to decide, alongside the minority in Parliament, on a pure uninominal voting system, which, he added, allows voters’ third choice candidates to win seats in Parliament, while those representing voters in constituencies stay home.
Speaking about the need to switch to a single-chamber Parliament and a maximum 300 lawmakers, Basescu pointed out that even top-level politicians in Romania are aware of the need to cut public spending.
