“Sicily has outdone itself in these elections.” This was declared by Renato Schifani, president of the National Council of Forza Italia, as well as president of the Region.
“The Forza Italia numbers, 23% of the votes in the region, equal to approximately 16% of the overall votes at national level, correspond to at least one and a half percentage points of the overall excellent national result”.
“Data confirms that our party is a rallying point for moderates”
Schifani also observes: “These data confirm that our party is the natural meeting point of moderates of liberal and pro-European inspiration and confirm Sicily as a historic basin of consensus for Forza Italia. Just as the number of preferences received by all the candidates on the list testifies to their great commitment and roots, the many votes expressed simply on the symbol are an indication of an opinion vote that expresses appreciation for a political history that was born with the vision of Silvio Berlusconi and continues today in the great work carried out by the secretary Tajani”.
The governor of the island continues: “For all of us who, in addition to having a party role, are called to important institutional roles, all this means further responsibilities, it means even greater commitment to providing answers to our citizens and our communities” .
And he concludes: “It means above all giving voice and representation at all levels to the requests of citizens, businesses, civil society, families, who, in recognizing the goodness of our work, ask us to continue our work and maintain the commitments undertaken ”.
Those elected in Forza Italia
Edy Tamajo, with over 121 thousand preferences, confirms himself as the absolute leader of preferences in Sicily. Tamajo wins the internal challenge of the Forza Italia list – “We moderates” in the Islands constituency of the European elections, with a gap of 20 thousand votes over Marco Falcone at the moment. The two of them are certain they made it. The leaders Caterina Chinnici were only third. Massimo Dell’Utri, who above all received the votes of Totò Cuffaro’s DC, is fourth. We will need to understand which of the councilors will decide to go to Brussels and which to stay in Sicily. The first renunciation would give the seat to Chinnici, the second to Dell’Utri
