Summary/Abstract: May 1914: in Romania were organized elections for the Constitutive Chamber. As usually happens in politics, things hadn’t developed very smoothly and the Romanian elections followed this rule without exception. During the suffrage until the end of it, the Liberals (they owned the leadership of the government on that moment and according to our political “tradition” this was an advantage, decisively a reason why they must win the elections) and the Conservatives (the opponents) accused each other by fraud. On 20th may 1914 the Ministry of Interns, V. G. Morţun presented in the Deputies’ Chamber, the incidents from the elections. Here, we have selected some concluding examples from his speech.
