That is one application exhibiteddefended to the bitter end, even at the risk of tearing and exploding what was thought to be the obvious, name Antonio Decaro as a candidate for governor. He turned into a boss Green Left Alliance and in the definite political decline of the people involved region of Puglia opened the season at that time Michele Emiliano and now by the former mayor of Bari. Party Nicola Fratoianni And Angelo Bonellithe other two children who were enthusiastic and friends at that time, had already left Regional Council and stay at home Nichi Vendola. There “Apulian Spring” it has undergone many metamorphoses but still retains its substance, but for the one who made it bloom, the great winter has come. Freezing, failure, call it what you want. Sad, lonely and final.
Avs below barrier threshold
The election marked his return after his farewell to the world of politics and the great embarrassment – never forgotten by many – associated with telephone tapping inIlva expressed by Finished (There Court of Cassation confirmed that summer it’s not defamation) turns into a farewell dance. Avs remains outside the Council despite the decision to nominate Vendola in three constituencies (Bari, Brindisi and Lecce) in the hope of leading the list. The left one even lifts 54,358 preferencesThat 4.09% of the 831,315 votes cast for those parties. But election law Puglia provides that for the goal barrier The percentage is calculated based on the presidential candidate’s vote share. And Decaro took it well 919.665so the Avs dipped below 4 percent.
There is no “Vendola effect”: less than 10 thousand votes
Goodbye chairs and nothing “Vendola Effect”. In the 9,698 they wrote the name of the former president on the ballot paper, a result that is not at all extraordinary when compared with the record holder in preferences and turnout in several constituencies (two-thirds of whom came from the Bari area). And thinking of Fratoianni, whose political cradle was the council of Vendola where he was a councillor, and Bonelli, who for years based his struggle on “And” From Cell which was going to happen ecologythey actually accused themselves of the nomination by defending itauto-aut from Decaro who threatened to stay Brussels if he and she introduce themselves Michele Emiliano.
Decaro’s personal approval sinks the Avs
In the end, the tear was officially repaired. But Decaro first closed “on the left” on the list. They do the rest personal preference from the new governor, was able to convey 88 thousand votes it depends only on the president, and the Apulian electoral law that regulates the calculation of the percentage of those preference groups. A system that was born right when Vendola ruled. The icing on the cakepolitical tombstone from revenge.
Puglia article, Vendola’s “great winter”: already removed from the Council. Thus Decaro’s success in emptying Avs came from Il Fatto Quotidiano.
