While John Donzelli he sees a game of his own and the president of the Senate Ignatius There Russian wants to eliminate runoffs, the center-left is celebrating. Especially off the Nazareneheadquarters of the Democratic Party, where while waiting to comment on the results at the press conference (Tuesday 25 June at 11 am), the secretary Elly Schlein sends a clear message: “One victory stortheca for us and the progressive camp” he says, claiming victory in Florence, Bari, Campobasso, Perugia, Potenza and Cagliari. The thesis is in the numbers: “It is irrevocable: the cities have rejected the right that governs and sent a clear message to Georgie Melons“. Which message? For the Dem secretary there are no doubts: “No more cuts to healthcare, no more low wages and no more to autonomy differentiated“. The reaction of the 5 Star Movementwhich relaunches the broad field: “Citizens reward i projects of agreement between the opposition forces – we read in a note – the result not of palace alchemy but of a convergence that is being consolidated in the classrooms parliamentarians as much as in the squares. This is a comforting fact incites to continue.”
After 24% of Europeans and the 10 capital cities won in the first round, it’s a big celebration in the Nazarene. Tonight all 6 regional capitals are centre-left led to vote. Results that strengthen the “stubbornly united” line of the dem secretary, as also underlined by Nicholas Fratoianni by Avs: “Now a credible alternative project to change Italy and make it better than it is today. We are here.” How does the 5 Star Movement fit in. Looking at the ballots in the 14 capitals voting, the centre-left beats the right 7 to 5 and counting all 29 voters the match it ends 17 to 10 for the center-left (it started from 13 to 12). Furthermore, according to data processed by Youtrend, in the 224 municipalities with the highest voting rights, the centre-left elected 115 mayors (11 more than the outgoing ones) and the centre-right 81 (2 more than the outgoing ones). There remain 3 M5S mayors, while the number drops from 38 to 25 civic mayors. The President of the Democratic Party, Stephen Bonaccini, speaks of “extraordinary success in the runoffs” and adds: “The confirmation that a united Democratic Party and a broad and plural center-left can really beat the right. Now we will think about the next regional elections in Umbria and Emilia-Romagna”.
Here in the autumn the post Bonaccini, elected MEP, will be played out, while the victory of Perugia it is considered decisive for the possible reconquest of Umbria, now with centre-right traction. “A wind of change is blowing”, tweets Anna Ascani from Umbria. Dario Nardella celebrates the confirmation of ‘his’ Florence where Sara Funaro clearly beats Nicolas Schimt sweeping away the fears of recent months, fueled by the divisions with which the center-left presented itself in the first round: “Good governance wins, women win, the center-left that talks about ideas and content wins. We will remember this day for many many years.” And they are also celebrating in Bari after the right-wing controversy over the council Antonio Decaro which, already a record holder with 500 thousand preferences in the European elections, sees its candidate Vito Leccese elected with 70% of the vote. The EU commissioner tweets, Paolo Gentiloni: “The air of the cities makes you free”. Marco Furfaro speaks of “a string of victories for the center-left. Not only him confirms, but also many capitals torn from the right. The left is back competitive, he found the squares and a soul again. Now is the time to build a project, a dream for Italy.”
