Someone wrote on the card Giusi Vinci. The vote, obviously, was validated: the voter’s will was very clear. Even because Giusi Princi made history Winthe most important school in Reggio Calabria: it is the scientific high school that you, as Principal, transformed into an excellence of national level. Now he is an MEP, Giusi Princi: the official verdict late at night, sanctioned by a touching embrace with the cousin Francesco Cannizzaro during the counting in the provincial coordination headquarters of Forza Italia, a few meters from Palazzo Campanella, the heart of Reggio Calabria.
Giusi Princior Vinci, do you, he got over 81,000 preference votes: in the Southern constituency for Forza Italia they only did better Tajani And Martusciello. And a few other big names from the other lists. To give an idea, Giusi got more votes than Roberto Vannaccithe most voted in the League with 70 thousand preferences and Matteo Renzi which did not even reach 60 thousand, and we are not talking about Reggio or Calabria but about the the entire Southern constituency which also includes Abruzzo, Molise, Campania, Puglia and Basilicata.
It’s the first time in history that the city of Reggio Calabria will have an MEP to represent it in Strasbourg. The only precedent was that of Umberto Pirilliwhich however is of Gioia Tauro and lived in the Flat. Today it also arrives in Strasbourg Mimmo Lucanoa personal and political life always involved in Locride. Giusi, on the other hand, He is from Reggio city: on the banks of the Strait she was born, raised, trained, studied and worked, she established herself as a school director before lending herself to politics as vice president Of Roberto Occhiuto to the Calabria Region, protagonist of an experience of good administration unprecedented in the history of Calabrian regionalism and always aimed at the interests of Reggio (see Airport and Ryanair).
Someone – from the most provincial depths of Reggio – moans that Giusi is from Mannoli, but Mannoli is neither Locride nor Piana: it is a fraction of Santo Stefano in Aspromonte, Municipality bordering that of Reggio, a few kilometers from the city center. The Stefanites live the city and in the city, on a daily basis, of which they belong the highest part with Gambarie, “the mountain of Reggio”. We are talking about a few kilometers of road, less than 30 minutes by car or bus, even more so now that there SSV Gallico-Gambarie is ready for the inauguration, this work has also been completed thanks to the historical and current commitment of the Center-Right to the Government of the Region (Scopelliti 10 years ago, instrumental in identifying and allocating the funds, and Occhiuto now to bring it to completion with the daily attention of Princi herself).
European Championships, Cannizzaro’s joy for Giusi Princi and the moving dedication to his brother Lollo who died a year ago
The added value of Giusi that’s exactly what it is arrive from Mannoli: always had one great sensitivity to the needs of small communities in inland areas, who struggle with depopulation and a series of problems for which decisive battles can be waged in Europe. And it is no coincidence that a Saint Stephen out of 492 voters, 359 voted for Giusi: Forza Italia took the 73%. Giusi was the most voted ever also in Reggio citywith 11,451 preferences in the municipal area (according to a certain Giorgia Meloni with 4,924 votes), in the entire Province of Reggio with 30,601 preferences (almost lapped by Giorgia Meloni, second with 16,680 votes), and even throughout Calabriawith 62,641 preferencesover ten thousand more than Giorgia Meloni, second with 51,663 votes (to be precise, the data are not yet definitive because 212 sections are still missing out of the 14,992 of the entire Southern constituency, but nothing will change except the absolute numbers of the final preferences that they will most likely see Giusi Princi reach the 82 thousand preferences).
The real plebiscite with which Calabria pushed Giusi Princi in Strasbourg, gathering important consensus across the board even with many historically left-wing voters who this time preferred to vote for a party from the opposing coalition in order to support the candidacy of Giusi in the interest of the territory, represents a great certificate of trust which now Princes feels all the sense of responsibility that will lead her to work even better, from an even more important decision-making point also because Giusi is one of the MEPs of the European People’s Party, the moderate centre-right which in Europe has a relative majority, is the first party, and will express the President of the Commission leading the new EU government. In reality – as all those who know her well know – she has been there for a month already Giusi she is studying to be an MEP: we are sure that she is already ready and super prepared for the new great challenge.
