Her rival, Arin Alexandru, proposed by the PNL group in the Senate, only received four votes, and two votes were voided. The voting was secret, based on paper ballots. The new CNI president, Cynthia Curt was the PDL subprefect of Cluj County and was the lecturer of acting PM Emil Boc at the Faculty of Political Administrative and Communication Sciences of the Babes-Bolyai University (UBB) of Cluj.

She graduated the Law Faculty of UBB in 1998 and started her career as a lawyer, then was hired by the Cluj Prefecture, where she was a deputy prefect from January 2006 until March 2008, at the proposal of PDL. In 2008, she left the Cluj Prefecture for a position of government inspector and member of the Body of High Civil Servants.
