While country-wide each of the two parties has won slightly less than 1/3 of the votes (in the end each got 1/3 of the seats in the EP), the two became the main political contestants in almost every county. Discounting the votes received by Elena Băsescu who afterwards re-joined PDL, PSD won the first place in 17 counties (with PDL arriving second in all of them), and PDL won the first place in 18 counties (with PSD arriving second in all of them but one). UDMR, fourth-largest party country-wide, won the first place in six counties, trailed in the second place five times by PSD, and one time by PDL. PNL, the third largest party country-wide rose above that level only in Ilfov County, where it obtained the second place after PDL. PRM, the fifth party, was unable to arrive first or second in any of Romania's counties. thumb|Map of results: the party with a plurality of votes in each locality Alliance PSD+PC 1504218 11 +1 Democratic Liberal Party 1438000 10 –6 National Liberal Party 702974 5 –1 Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania 431739 3 +1 Greater Romania Party 419094 3 +3 Christian Democratic National Peasants' Party 70428 0 0 Civic Force 19436 0 New Independents 254144 1 0 194626 18197316 –2 ROAEP By county PSD first, PDL second: UDMR first, PSD or PDL second: PDL first, PSD second: Argeș (PSD 41.42%, PDL 26%) Bihor (UDMR 27.53%, PDL 23.66%)Arad (PDL 40.96%, PSD 21.09%) Bacău (PSD 31.88%, PDL 29.15%) Covasna (UDMR 82.41%, PSD 6.19%)Alba (PDL 44.45%, PSD 22.35%) Brăila (PSD 40.95%, PDL 24.32%) Harghita (UDMR 89.4%, PSD 3.4%)Bistrița-Năsăud (PDL 37.02%, PSD 34.86%) Constanța (PSD 34.64%, PDL 27.83%) Mureș (UDMR 49.30%, PSD 15.70%)Botoșani (PDL 33.40%, PSD 32.63%) Dâmbovița (PSD 43.01%, PDL 36.23%) Satu Mare (UDMR 39.64%, PSD 20.61%)Brașov (PDL 33.33%, PSD 22.61%) Dolj (PSD 39.20%, PDL 36.56%) Sălaj (UDMR 29.55%, PSD 25.34%)Buzău (PDL 33.3%, PSD 31.9%) Galați (PSD 42.44%, PDL 26.95%) Caraș-Severin (PDL 35.26%, PSD 29.86%) Gorj (PSD 34.26%, PDL 30.55%) PDL first, PNL or UDMR second:Călărași (PDL 29.3%, PSD 27.9%) Hunedoara (PSD 28.56%, PDL 21.73%)Ilfov (PDL 40.32%, PNL 23.91%)Giurgiu (PDL 39.8%, PSD 27.2%) Ialomița (PSD 44.8%, PDL 28.4%) Cluj (PDL 31.01%, UDMR 22.51%)Maramureș (PDL 29.52%, PSD 25.24%) Iași (PSD 37.63%, PDL 25.20%) Neamț (PDL 41.91%, PSD 32%) Mehedinți (PSD 37.03%, PDL 35.60%) Prahova (PDL 36.77%, PSD 24.59%) Olt (PSD 47.59%, PDL 32.16%) Sibiu (PDL 33.93%, PSD 32.06%) Teleorman (PSD 51.68%, PDL 22.27%) Suceava (PDL 39.50%, PSD 28.81%) Vaslui (PSD 45.80%, PDL 21.25%)Timiș (PDL 38.32%, PSD 27%) Vâlcea (PSD 39.56%, PDL 25.27%) Tulcea (PDL 39.1%, PSD 28.8%) Vrancea (PSD 48.47%, PDL 21.24%) In the capital city of Bucharest, PDL won with 28.28% of the votes, with PSD in second with 27.87%.
