THIS IS HIS FOURTH TIME AS FIRST CITIZEN
Ferrara, 12 June – Alan Fabbri is officially mayor of Ferrara. Two days after the electoral victory, the electoral result of 8 and 9 June was formally confirmed this morning, Wednesday 12 June at 11.30 am in the Town Hall.
The proclamation by the Central Electoral Office, in fact, was communicated today, thus making Alan Fabbri’s election as mayor in the first round official. Already first citizen of Ferrara since 2019, in these elections he was supported by a coalition formed by the civic list Alan Fabbri Sindaco, Fratelli d’Italia, Forza Italia, Lega, UDC and Ferrara al Centro.
In fact, 57.88% of Ferrara residents voted for the mayoral candidate Alan Fabbri and his centre-right coalition with 40,921 votes out of a total of 72,288 voters (67.6% of registered voters). The civic list ‘Alan Fabbri Sindaco’ won – alone – 30.56%, with 20,934 votes.
The centre-left coalition of candidate Fabio Anselmo (lawyer of cases known on a national scale such as Cucchi and Aldrovandi) instead totaled 36.13%, with 25,546 votes. Anna Zonari reached 3.90% with 2,755 votes and Daniele Botti 2.10% with 1,482 votes (Eligendo data).
“Within the scope of the responsibilities attributed to my office, I inform you that, based on the results of the administrative elections of 8 and 9 June 2024, you were elected to the office of mayor of this Municipality”, reads the deputy general secretary Francesco Paparella to Alan Fabbri, in the mayor’s office. This was followed by best wishes for the future activity from the entire administrative structure of the institution. In the next few days the first obligations of the office will begin, planning the administrative steps required by law.
“I thank the citizens of Ferrara for believing in my program, the one carried out and the one yet to be carried out. The people of Ferrara have chosen change again”, said Alan Fabbri. At the center of the objectives of the next mandate will be “work and the will to bring Ferrara to be competitive in Emilia Romagna and at a national level, even in difficult and complex areas such as economic development”.
At 45, Alan Fabbri is now mayor for the fourth time. At just 30 years old he was elected mayor of Bondeno (in the Ferrara area), where he was then confirmed for a second term with 65% of the votes. In 2012 he was deputy commissioner for the reconstruction after the earthquake in Emilia. Already mayor of Ferrara in June 2019 – the first center-right in Ferrara in over seventy years – he has now been reconfirmed with a large majority.
Fabbri is the 14th mayor of Ferrara (from 1946 to today) and the fourth since mayors are elected directly by the citizens and no longer by the city council (since 1995).
Five years ago, in the 2019 Ferrara administrative elections, candidate Alan Fabbri obtained 36,616 votes in the first round (48.46%) and 37,504 votes in the run-off (56.77%). The centre-left candidate Aldo Modonesi had obtained 23,981 votes in the first round (31.74%) and 43.23% in the run-off, with 28,561 votes (source: historical election archive of the Municipality of Ferrara). The percentage of voters in the first round was 71.45% (77,534), in the run-off 61.9% (67,166 voters out of 108,509 registered voters).
