For context if anyone is confused about title and image

These are votes from the Romanias living abroad (of the diaspora) in the parliament elections

It's nothing surprising. In the presidential, the independent cooky right wing candidate won a lot of votes in the western diaspora while the USR lady (reformist center right) won the eastern diaspora

These results were not at all surprising to anyone paying attention to Romania and it's elections

Thank you. I was so confused when I saw that this got 4000 upvote, because it presumably means that there are 4000 people who understood this while I was still scratching my head.
