Contests with public voting in May in Romania: dates and organisers
Three named contests in May in Romania closed their public votes in the month, according to the reports cited: Destinația Anului, the Premiile Superscrieri readers' vote and the Mastercard Bank of the Year reader vote. Destinația Anului's public vote ran over two days in May 2024, and the Mastercard Bank of the Year reader vote accepted votes until 22 May 2024. The Superscrieri readers' vote closed on 15 May, ahead of a gala on 27 May, and the reports do not print the year.
Rechecked on 21 October 2026.
Destinația Anului's two-day public vote in May 2024
Destinația Anului ran its public vote on 8 and 9 May 2024, a two-day window in which the public picked the favourite destination in Romania. Radio Constanța's report says the vote was held on the contest's own website, so the dates and the ballot sat in one place. The report gives the dates and the question put to the public, and nothing about how the count was kept.
Anyone who wants to vote in a window this short has to know its start before the first day arrives, because only two calendar days are on record for this contest. A late reader has no spare week to work with inside a window of this length, and the report does not suggest otherwise.
The contest's own rules are the document to check for eligibility and the count, and the cited report does not reproduce them. This page therefore cannot say who was eligible to vote in 2024, how the votes were counted, or whether one person's votes were capped.
Two days is the one number this contest gives, and it is the figure a reader should plan around. The report names no later date for results, so nothing else is on record for that month. Anyone comparing it with the other dated votes in this month should keep the two-day span apart from the closing-day-only dates that the other reports give.
- Destinația Anului's public vote ran on 8 and 9 May 2024.
- The vote took place on the contest's own website.
- The public chose the favourite destination in Romania.
- Two calendar days is the window on record.
- The report does not describe how votes were counted.
Premiile Superscrieri: a readers' vote that closed on 15 May
The Premiile Superscrieri readers' choice is the Superscrierea Cititorilor, and its reader vote covered 53 nominated pieces. Zilesinopti's report says readers can vote until 15 May, and it places the gala on 27 May, after the vote has closed.
Edition 15 is the only identifier the report gives, and the report prints no year. Without a year, the 15 May closing date cannot be tied to a calendar year from this text, so a reader who finds the same award in another year has to confirm the edition and its dates again.
The gala on 27 May falls twelve days after the vote closed. The cited report does not say whether the readers' result is announced at the gala or later, so the gala date alone does not settle when results appear.
The cited report ties the reader vote to the 15 May close and says nothing about what happens to nominated pieces afterwards. This page does not fill that gap with a rule from another contest, and a reader who needs the rule for nominees has to read the award's own terms, which the report does not reproduce.
- Readers can vote for the Superscrierea Cititorilor until 15 May.
- The reader vote covered 53 nominated pieces.
- The gala is set for 27 May in the cited report.
- The report gives edition 15 and no year.
- Twelve days separate the closing date from the gala.
Mastercard Bank of the Year: the 2024 reader deadline of 22 May
The Mastercard Bank of the Year 2024 award had a reader vote run with Wall-Street, and Capital's report gives 22 May 2024 as the last day for sending votes. The award carries the Mastercard name, while the reader vote is attributed to Wall-Street in that report.
The report sets a last day but gives no opening day for the reader vote. A reader can therefore confirm the close and not the start, so the length of this vote cannot be stated from the text alone.
Who counts the reader votes is the question that matters most for an award with a reader vote in its name. The cited report names the award, Wall-Street's reader vote and the outlet that reported the deadline, but it describes no auditor and no count method, so this page leaves the count open.
The closing day and the award's name are the two facts on record. Anyone who needs the count has to go to the organiser, since no cited report describes how that count was run.
- The deadline for sending votes was 22 May 2024.
- The award carries the Mastercard name in the report.
- The reader vote is attributed to Wall-Street.
- Capital's report gives no opening date for the vote.
- The count method is not described in the cited report.
Eurovision Romania: each user gets at most ten votes
Eurovision Romania, run by TVR, caps each user at ten votes, and a user can split those votes across one entrant or several. Hotnews reported the limit on 14 May 2026, the most recent date in the reports cited.
The report presents the cap as part of the Eurovision contest's own rules, and the reports cited give no general rule for online contests. A reader who wants to know the limit should check the contest's rules first and the report second.
Ten votes given to one entrant and ten votes split across several count as the same total, so the cap is a total and not a per-entrant figure. That distinction trips up a reader who takes the limit to apply to each entrant separately.
The rule governs how many votes a single user can give, and it says nothing about when voting closes. No closing date for that vote is printed in the cited report, and this page does not supply one. A reader who needs the closing day has to look for it in the contest's own announcement, which the reports cited here do not reproduce.
- Eurovision Romania is run by TVR, according to Hotnews.
- Each user is limited to at most ten votes.
- The ten votes can go to one entrant or be split.
- The cap is a total across all entrants, not a per-entrant figure.
- The cited report gives no closing date for that vote.
Contest deadlines for May votes and what the reports leave open
Entry deadlines are a separate date from voting dates, and no cited report gives an entry deadline for any May contest named here. The closing days for voting are the only deadlines on record, and they fall on 9, 15 and 22 May.
A closing day for a vote says nothing about when the entry itself had to be in, and this page does not infer one from it. Scam and fake contests are the first kind to doubt when no closing day is given, and each of the three May contests named here gives one.
No cited report says how far ahead of May an entry should be ready, and this page does not estimate that lead time for any contest named here. A reader planning an entry for a later May has the same gap to close, and the answer lies in that contest's own timetable, not in the reports on this page.
What the page can state is the window the reports print for each named contest: two days of public vote in 2024 for Destinația Anului, a readers' vote closing on 15 May, and a deadline of 22 May 2024 for the Mastercard award. Anything beyond those dates is not in the text, so it stays open.
- No cited report gives an entry deadline for a May contest.
- The closing days on record are 9 May 2024, 15 May and 22 May 2024.
- Two-day public votes leave little room to catch up.
- A gala date is an event date, not an entry date.
- Entry lead times are not stated in the reports cited.
Rules that apply
None of the reports cited sets out a national rule for online contest votes, and none gives a platform rule for them. A contest's own rules fix its vote limit, eligibility and closing date, which is why each named contest is dated on its own terms. Legality therefore turns on the terms of each contest and on Romanian law, and the reports do not settle a general legal test. Editorial note: the dates on this page were checked against the named sources and reviewed on 21 October 2026.
What we decline
This page does not name the organiser of every May contest in Romania, and it cannot confirm a voting window that the reports leave open. Organisers decide eligibility, the count and whether an entry is removed, so nothing here predicts a result or a disqualification. The short-number rules cover what a sender is told about the tariff, not how a contest counts its votes, and no cited report shows a national body checking vote totals. The page cannot say which entrant a May vote will favour, and it never fills a missing date with a guess.
Questions and answers
Destinația Anului is the one contest in the cited reports with both a start and an end inside May, since its public vote ran on 8 and 9 May 2024. The Premiile Superscrieri readers' vote and the Mastercard Bank of the Year reader vote carry closing dates only, so the reports do not show when either one opened.
Three contests in the cited reports close their voting in May. Destinația Anului closes on 9 May 2024, the Premiile Superscrieri readers' vote on 15 May, and the Mastercard Bank of the Year reader vote on 22 May 2024. The Superscrieri date carries no year in its report, so it applies to edition 15 only.
Only one length is on record: Destinația Anului's public vote ran for two days, 8 and 9 May 2024. The Superscrieri and Mastercard Bank of the Year votes have closing dates but no opening dates in the reports, so their length cannot be worked out from the text.
The one date after a May vote in these reports is the Premiile Superscrieri gala on 27 May, twelve days after the readers' vote closed on 15 May. The reports do not say that winners are named at that gala, and they give no announcement date for the Destinația Anului or Mastercard Bank of the Year results.
No cited report gives an entry date for a May contest, so this page cannot set a lead time. The reports do show how short a May vote can be: Destinația Anului's public vote lasted two days, so the rules have to be read before the window opens, not during it.
The cited reports set no lead time, and this page does not estimate one. The only May date that is not a closing day is the Premiile Superscrieri gala on 27 May, and it falls after the readers' vote, so it says nothing about when an entry had to be ready.
