The Christian Liberal Alliance (Romanian: Alianța Creștin-Liberală, ACL), also known as the PNL-PDL Alliance (Romanian: Alianța PNL-PDL), was a centre-right[1] electoral alliance in Romania.
The alliance was founded on 28 July 2014 by the National Liberal Party (PNL) and Democratic Liberal Party (PDL) prior to a planned future merger between the two parties in order to field a joint presidential candidate in the 2014 presidential election.[2][3] In August 2014, the parties selected Klaus Iohannis, PNL party president and mayor of Sibiu (German: Hermannstadt), as presidential candidate.[4][5]
In the first round of the 2014 presidential election held on 2 November 2014, ACL candidate Iohannis received 30.4% of the vote, coming in second place behind Victor Ponta, the Social Democratic Party (PSD) candidate and incumbent Prime Minister of Romania.[6] In the runoff election held on 16 November 2014, Iohannis received 54.5% of the vote, becoming the surprise victor of the Romanian presidency.[7] The alliance was disbanded on 17 November 2014 upon the merger of PNL and PDL.[8]
