"Democracy Dies in Darkness" according to the Washington Post, but when democracy is annulled in broad daylight Politico thinks it is no big deal as long as it is the election of a candidate they oppose that is being cancelled.

Such is the attitude of the European edition of Politico towards the Romanian presidential election that was cancelled by that country's Constitutional Court due to what they claimed was interference by Russia on social media.

On Wednesday, Politico's Giselle Ruhiyyih Ewing gleefully reported in a six-paragraph brief that "Romanian appeals court upholds scrubbing fishy presidential election."

Politico skipped the STRONG objection to the election annulment by the candidate they favor because they agree that it is perfectly fine to annul elections when the results don't turn out the "right" way. They only wish they could have annulled the 2016 election here in the USA.

This is really fishy.
The Russians are alleged to help by adds on tik-tok.
Since Russians and other agents are always sending stuff on tik-tok etc. I guess no election from this time on will be legit?!
Anyway, Lasconi was predicted to win the second round anyway. So what is the problem?
Lack of a leftist in the second round?!
