With the run-off round which took place on Sunday 23 and Monday 24 June, all the mayors of the 185 Tuscan municipalities voting in this electoral round were elected.
Overall, women are increasing compared to the post-2019 election scenario: they go from 18 to 21% if we consider the number of Municipalities; while compared to the population it goes from 11 to 32%. And there are five women who administer cities with inhabitants over 40 thousand inhabitants: Florence, Prato, Carrara, Siena and Scandicci.
The average age of all Tuscan mayors today is 53 years. There are 16 people under 35 (equal to 6%), while in 2019 there were 22 (equal to 8). The youngest is 27 years old and administers the Municipality of Vicchio.
The majority of mayors currently in office are in their first term: there are 115, equal to 42%; while 102 are in their second term (37%), 52 in their third (19%) and 4 in their fourth (1%).
