Yesterday the debate with the candidates at secretary of PD.
Civati was the winner. Renzi undertone. Cuperlo poor.

I so wish Civati had a chance... The only one who had the guts to say that the Letta government is sh*t.

The Constitutional Court has rejected the "porcellum" (the current electoral system) in both the points put to the test of constitutionality: that the majority of the premium and the lack of preferences.

Oh sh**t, so on top of everything else a new electoral law is needed? If so, hopefully the French or German models in FPTP's guaranteed absence.

Others speak of a law proportional with the preferences...

What the CC did is effectively take us back to full-scale PR (with a small threshold, but still). Not exactly the kind of system Italy needs right now.

It's time to see if Renzi can actually force the government/parliament to do something serious about electoral reform, because otherwise we're screwed.

With this judgment into practice was abolished premium Majority in the House (the national prize, which entitled him to 340 parliamentarians) and the Senate (the regional prize of 55%). So we have the same electoral system for the House and Senate and this is not constitutional... ahahah....

Oh, this electoral law decision should be fun.  Smiley  Please give us a system that people can at least partly understand!

As for the new symbol, yeah, it leaves a lot to be desired but at least it isn't another party that just threw the tricolor in there.

All the polls suggest Renzi should have an easy first ballot win.

In Lega news, Matteo Salvini (slimy, racist, populist, anti-euro hack) won the party's leadership election with 82%, crushing the Old Leader Bossi. If someone had predicted this just two years ago... Cheesy
