The return of Augusto Rollandin. In the Regionals of Val d’Aosta the list drawn up by the former governor, For autonomy, overcomes the barrier and with 6.36% enters the regional council. Nicknamed the Emperor, six times president of the Region between 1984 and 2017 and historical leader of theUnion Valdôtaine, the autonomist party that has always been hegemonic, Rollandin he was the only candidate from Valle d’Aosta included in the list of the so-called “unpresentable” candidates of the Anti-Mafia Commission.

The protagonist of numerous legal events, Rolandin was sentenced in 2019 in the first instance for corruption at 4 years and 6 months imprisonment and interdiction of public offices for 5 years. Therefore, he was suspended as a councilor in the last legislature, as required by the Severino law, also abandoning the position of vice president of the Valle d’Aosta County Council.

That, however, outside the League, remains outside the regional council: the single list of Go Italy me Brothers from Italy which stops at 5.6%. There is also no quorum for him 5 star movement.
