Editing Ion Iliescu (section)

=== 2000 re-election ===

CDR was a huge letdown for the people of Romania. So in the 2000 elections all the parties that were part of CDR where really low in the polls resulting in the 2nd round being between Iliescu and the leader of the Far right Greater Romania Party, Corneliu Vadim Tudor. 

Iliescu won a 3th term because nobody wanted a far right party in power. During his 3th term, the Social Democrat (as his party was called now) oligarchs consolidated their power troughout Romania.
