Summary/Abstract: From the political point of view, 2012 dealt with surprises, first time situations and upheavals. The local elections from this year represented the premises for some important changes in Romania, their result constituting the preamble for the general elections from December the 9th, but also for the changes from the parties and the general political system. In our study, we took into account the local elections from Drăgăşani, Vâlcea County. Following a more serious analysis of the first elections results (2012), we could notice several interesting elements that drew our attention for such a research. In the same time, there was also a personal reason that made us investigate certain phenomena that we observed directly and to take part to some of them.
