“We are the first party.” The secretary did not beat around the bush Pd Nicola Zingaretti commenting on the result of the regional elections of twenty me September 21st. Justified jubilation, if you think that in the days before the vote, the voices gave the winning center-right is in Puglia what in Tuscany, two of the three regions together with the Campania instead, the center-left won with a democratic candidate.
But do the numbers justify this celebration? In this sense, the issue is more complex. Infodata collected data on the percentages obtained by the Democratic Party at the regional level, the Europeans last year and the policies of two years ago. Obviously, only in those regions called to vote this weekend. The result is represented in this infographic:
In the infographic, the red dot indicates the result of the regional elections, the blue refers to the European ones, while the yellow represents the policies. The further to the right a point is, the higher the percentage obtained by the Pd in that competition, the higher it is, the greater the participation.
Meanwhile, it can be said that in the three regions where the center-left won, as well as in the Market, the Democratic Party achieved a result superior to the policies of the 2018, probably the lowest point reached so far by the Democrats, at least in electoral terms. So if this is the comparison, getting better wasn’t that difficult.
The truth is that the result obtained by the Democratic Party is especially important in Campania, where there was a list of the president Vincenzo De Luca, able to get the 13.3%. A success, that of the Campania democrats, obtained at the expense of the allies of the grillini government, passed by 30.1% of policies to little less 10%.
Difficult to assess the situation in Aosta Valley because the Democratic Party appeared before the autonomists of theAlpe, Ruin, Alpine star, Valdotaine Union me Progressive Valdotaine Union. While he was in the regional he formed the Progressive Civic Project with Civic network ed Green Europe. Circumstances that make it difficult to weigh the vote of the Democrats alone. There has certainly been a decline regarding policies, but it is largely due to Union Valdotaine raced alone, playing the sixteen%.
However, nothing remotely comparable to what happened in Veneto, where the Democratic Party arrived11.9%. It is true that, given the results, the allies of the 5 star movement would make false papers for such a result (in Veneto they stopped at 3.25%), but in last year’s Europeans, those of League Alabama 40%, the Pd touched the 19%. However, the reason for the collapse in these parts has a name and a surname: Luca zaia. Which has obtained percentages higher than those who attended the cut of parliamentarians, both in Veneto and at the national level.
Finally there is the Liguria, where the Democratic Party stopped just below the twenty%, as was the case with the policies of two years ago. The important difference is that on Sunday and Monday the 50.7% of the ligurians while politics went to the polls 72.9% of voters. In absolute numbers it has gone from 169 thousand votes two years ago ai 124 thousand Last weekend.
In short, as always happens when it comes to local elections, it is difficult to find an outright winner, especially if you look at the numbers. The alternative is anecdotal, the one for which everyone won and no one won. And we can define ourselves as the first game.
After written
Some readers told us, also through social networks, that adding the votes obtained in the individual regions, those of P.S far exceed those of the League. In particular, 1,784,626 crosses over the democratic symbol, 1,256,082 in the ofAlberto da Giussano. The difference is 528,544 preferences in favor of dem. Having said that the result has yet to be calibrated to the fact that on Sunday and Monday roughly a third of the entire electorate was called to vote in the regional elections, this analysis misses one factor. A factor called Luca zaia. Why maybe me? 916,087 The votes on his list, in the next policies, will not all go to the League. But they are more likely to go here than to the Democratic Party. Thus revised, the situation is what this infographic represents.
