Meanwhile, incumbent Maia Sandu was closer to a second term in office, after partial results in the country’s presidential election gave her a small lead over her main rival.

They called it too early. Yes is now in the lead
Did No get a time penalty?
No got a “foreign vote came in late and overwhelmingly voted yes” penalty
Fuck. Putin won.
Not quite. The presidential election isn’t decided yet and this referendum wasn’t directly on joining the EU but on a constitutional amendment that would have required future governments to work towards joining the EU.
The referendum has also flipped, yes is in the lead
Check again! The diaspora has flipped the results! Yes is in the lead, narrowly!
Awesome to hear! Thanks!
Honestly, Moldova is too divided in this regard. Not to mention the Transnistria issue. If they were to join the EU in their current state, there’s a chance we’d just end up with another Hungary/Slovakia situation. They need much more time IMO.
At least the people of Moldova got to participate in democracy
Noted. This is your idea of democracy.

Also, I thought you believed I was an AI, so I’m not sure why you’re replying to me again. Seems a bit silly to keep replying to a robot.
Edit: Them calling me a robot-
Doesn’t look much less silly than American democracy where all the oligarchs just have PACs where they can influence elections with.
I can’t reply on the news comm because apparently saying someone is being pedantic is a rule 1 violation on 1984.world
“The US, known for its flawed democracy, has a flawed democracy; therefore all democracy is useless and we should just let genocidal dictators decide”
Have you ever been to Europe?
Your first claim:
At least the people of Moldova got to participate in democracy
Your second claim:
Doesn’t look much less silly than American democracy where all the oligarchs just have PACs where they can influence elections with.
Therefore Americans also get to participate in democracy.
I’m not sure that’s where you wanted your own logic to go.
And, again, if I’m a robot, you’re pretty foolish to keep talking to me.
It can be a democracy and also silly. Are you trying to say American elections don’t allow for unlimited money to be spent on elections as “free speech”?
There was a famous court case where the supreme court said it was ok.
Nope, this is what I am saying:
Therefore Americans also get to participate in democracy.
And this is also what I’m saying:
And, again, if I’m a robot, you’re pretty foolish to keep talking to me.
It’s easy to see what I’m saying if you just read the words in between the spaces.
But then what do I know? I’m not the one who keeps arguing with what they think is a non-sentient machine.
You understand you completely agreed with that guy, right? Why are you acting like you have any outstanding disagreements?
You’re clearly not a bot, and if I said you were I would prob get banned for a rule 1 violation. I’ll be patiently waiting to see if any of the people who’ve been misgendering me catch a ban, but I won’t hold my breath.
America has a democracy, it’s not really great at representing people, but I get to fill out some paper every year. It also has unlimited money for oligarchs to influence elections. That money can come from pretty much anywhere. See the analogy?
Everything just stayed the same plus one less headache to deal with in the EU. Not bad, really, considering all that’s been going on in the last 10 years.
I don’t understand why this article makes it seem as though its already been decided before the final tally is done, it could still be a yes!
In fact, as of writing this comment, the vote is evenly split at 50 / 50, as seen here: https://pv.cec.md/cec-template-referendum-results.html
Yes is now in the lead, narrowly
As of this moment, the official result appears to be “yes”.
In a few years’ time, Sandu will have had an unfortunate accident with a window, and Moldovan conscripts will be dying in meatwave assaults on the western front of the Ukrainian permawar.
BRICS: For some reason, we’re going to make a money laundering collective for dictatorships and be shocked when people call us up on it and we’ll blame the EU
