Italy's Meloni and allies keep control of Abruzzo region: Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and her right-wing allies have kept control of the central region ...
reut.rs/4ccZurF
Quick Glance: Meloni and Allies Maintain Control of Abruzzo Region
- Giorgia Meloni's party won around 24% of the vote in Abruzzo. Election results revealed that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and her right-wing allies have retained control of the central region of Abruzzo, bouncing back from a shock defeat in Sardinia two weeks ago.
- The outcome will strengthen Meloni ahead of the upcoming European elections in June, solidifying the position of her party, Brothers of Italy, as the predominant force in Italian politics. With almost all the ballots from yesterday's regional election counted, the right-wing incumbent governor Marco Marsilio secured over 53% of the vote, while the candidate supported by all major opposition parties received approximately 46.5%.
- The result dealt a blow to the center-left bloc, which set aside its internal rivalries to campaign together, hoping to replicate its recent success in Sardinia where Meloni's candidate was ousted from power. Meloni's party won around 24% of the vote in the mountainous Abruzzo, well ahead of the second largest group, the center-left Democratic Party (PD), which received 20.4%.
