Benevento
Preferences “are sacrosanct. They make me smile, but as a Christian I tolerate these forms of simplicity, those who say they are the fruit of the devil. They represent, in my opinion, the maximum democratic richness that can exist”. Clemente Mastella, former minister and current mayor of Benevento, said this in an interview with Messaggero. “I would like to convince you that there was a problem called Clean Hands – states Mastella – It was the affirmation of a historical falsehood: that is, the vote of embellishment as a vote of malfeasance. Like an abuse of criminal association”. What is it instead? “It’s a territorial vote that can be summarized in a few images: open windows, air, passionate competition, real life. The idea that crime is behind the vote is one of the biggest nonsense circulating.” As for the number of preferences that his wife Sandra, candidate for Brussels, will get, he states: “I don’t know, because we no longer have a traditional party behind us, like the DC. However, I believe we will reach a few tens of thousands”.
