Ultimora.net highlighted the main contents of the Stabilicum and reported that the following day the Chamber would vote definitively on the law, by secret ballot. In the case of rejection, Giorgia Meloni intended to call early elections, according to the site. The proposal envisaged a proportional system with a majority premium of 70 seats in the Chamber and 35 in the Senate, up to a maximum of 220 deputies and 113 senators. The premium would kick in with at least 42% of the votes in both Chambers; below that threshold, seats would be allocated proportionally. Uninominal constituencies would be eliminated, except for those in South Tyrol and Aosta Valley. Each list would have a blocked leader and six other candidates, with the possibility of expressing up to three preferences while respecting gender alternation. Ultimora.net indicated barriers of 3% for lists and 10% for coalitions, with the retrieval of the list with the most votes among those below 3%. Parties and coalitions would also have to indicate a candidate for prime minister, whose name would not appear on the ballot. The proposal would reduce the geographical divisions for voting by Italians abroad in the Chamber from four to two — Europe and the rest of the world — and to one in the Senate. For those living away from home, the site wrote, voting at the place of temporary residence would be possible after at least nine months, or three for those undergoing treatment, provided they registered with a list within 30 days of meeting the requirements and at least 45 days before the elections. This option would be extended to caregivers of family members hospitalized outside their region of residence. Finally, for parties without parliamentary representation, the minimum number of signatures required would rise from 1,500 to 6,000 per constituency; for Italians abroad, between 500 and 1,000 would be needed. Electronic collection of signatures would not be permitted, according to Ultimora.net. #LeggeElettorale #Elezioni #Italia (translated)
"The drawback of voting in September - said the Fdi senator as a guest on 'A Day as a Sheep' - is that you have little time to campaign, and then there is the issue of drafting the budget law, which is a very delicate matter, so there might be a need to vote in May." Complicating matters are the recent statements from the Melonian group leader Lucio Malan, who has considered the possibility of early elections, only to then backtrack: "The drawback of voting in September - said the Fdi senator as a guest on 'A Day as a Sheep' - is that you have little time to campaign, and then there is the issue of drafting the budget law, which is a very delicate matter, so there might be a need to vote in May." #ElezioniPolitiche #GiorgiaMeloni #Centrosinistra (translated)
