Elections in Umbria, the signals for the national government

Come on results of the elections in Umbria Thus a clear verdict (and a signal) emerges: Salvini triumphed, storming a region that was historically "red", in alliance with Fratelli d'Italia in great form: the party of Giorgia Meloni goes in double figures and exceeds 10% coming almost 10% to round Forza Italia, stopped at 5.5%. From Umbria comes a clear signal even at the national level, but the consequences on the government of Rome are uncertain and all still to be deciphered: it cannot be the center-right to give a thrust "from the outside" to the majority of Roma players and a vote cannot be enough regional level to destabilize a national government until it drops.

Results of the Umbria elections, the reactions

"By eye we have made a historic undertaking". So Matteo Salvini as soon as he arrived in a hotel in Perugia, he commented on the triumph of Donatella Tesei, a candidate for the center-right in the Umbria region. "For the Democratic Party and the M5s – explains Salvini – it is a lesson in democracy, honesty and transparency, they will remember it". "The Lega is confirmed as the first party, here is Italy. Someone in Rome will have something to think about tonight. The Italians – he adds – do not like traitors and poltronists".

The secretary of the Democratic Party, Nicola Zingaretti, speaks of a "net defeat" that "confirms a negative trend of the center-left consolidated in recent years in many large Umbrian municipalities that have not been able to overturn. The result around Bianconi confirms, despite splits and disengagement, the consensus of the forces that gave birth to the alliance ". "Obviously – specifies Zingaretti – we will reflect a lot on this vote and the choices to be made, a vote certainly not helped by the chaos of controversy that accompanied the government's economic maneuver".

Renzi: "The pact does not work, Conte does not have the magic touch"

"What happened in Umbria proves me right: that electoral pact does not work. This means that there is a huge political space, a boundless prairie for Italia Viva. The project of which is certainly not one of intertwining with the grillini". He says it Matteo Renzi in an article on Il Messaggero. The 'photo of Narni', to which Renzi did not participate, and the decision to transform the regional match into a national one "for Renzi – reads the Roman newspaper – was a serious mistake. And he considers it an act of arrogance to have considered Conte l a man of miracles and a magic touch, the one capable of overturning an announced defeat, also because, as shown by the bad result of Bianconi, according to the head of Italia Viva, Conte has neither the magic touch, nor can he work miracles: one thing is the approval rating that the polls give him, another is the vote he brings, "reads Il Messaggero.

The reaction of the Five stars arrives with a post on the Facebook page of the Movement. "The civic pact for Umbria – we read – we have always considered it a laboratory, but the experiment did not work. The Movement in its history had never experienced such a road. And this experience shows that we can really represent the third away just looking over the two opposite poles ". "From the formation of the first executive – write the Cinquestelle – it was immediately clear to us that being in government with another political force – whether it is the League or the Democratic Party – sacrifices the consent of the 5 Star Movement. But we are not born to pursue consensus, but to bring home the results, such as the prison for this week's tax evaders and the cuts in the previous week's parliamentarians ".

The leader of the Brothers of Italy, Giorgia Meloni, comments on Facebook. "Once the stronghold of the left has been conquered, we are now freeing Italy," he writes. "The Italians have clearly said which way they want to be. Lega, Fdi and FI exceed 50%, Fratelli d'Italia in Umbria is the third party and I hope that this trend will also materialize on a national scale. Fossi in Conte would immediately give up resignation".
