Last among fifteen candidates for the European Championships. After the football flop, it’s not as if things went much better with politics for Lorenzo Grassini who in 2018, after an exhausting negotiation, acquired the ownership of Lucchese from the hands of the then owner Moriconi and after not having recapitalized and having given the club back to the same Moriconi disappeared with the Pantera one step away from the abyss and with penalty points.
Grassini had run for Forza Italia-Noi Moderati in the European elections in the Central constituency, which also includes Tuscany and now that the results are practically official it is possible to evaluate the result: in total, Grassini collected 959 preferences, ranking as mentioned in The last place on his list, the penultimate, Lorenzo Ghinelli collected 1671, the first Antonio Tajani, 97602. In Lucca, Grassini instead collected 13 preferences: to some it may seem like a lot, to some few.
Grassini, as can be seen from his Facebook profile, tried to intercept the votes of the Albanians present in Italy, whom he thanked at the end of the counting, also because, here’s the news, Grassini has lived in Albania for years and intends to apply for citizenship in those parts . “Albanian-Italian friends – we read – who live and vote in Italy. I sincerely thank you for the political and public support you have given me in these European elections and the Forca Party (written exactly like that) Italy which nominated me. Even if I was not chosen, this battle made me understand even more how close we should be to each other. I will continue to work closely with all the Albanians of Italy and in the future I will ask my friend His Excellency Bajram Begaj President of Albania to make me a citizen of Albania since I have been a resident for years. I would like to thank you once again.”
