The outgoing governor exceeds 50% of the preferences, clearly detaching the MEP under investigation that will return to Strasbourg. Brothers of Italy over 27%, M5S at Lumicino. Giorgia Meloni: “He won the good government”
At 5.34 pm Matteo Ricci He threw the sponge: «I just called Francesco Acquaroli To congratulate me ». Not even three hours after the closure of the polls (poorly frequented seats: the turnout stopped at 50.01%, almost ten points in less than five years ago), the brands that had to be the Ohio d’Italia and open a prairie of victories to the wide field have turned into an “Ahia” for the Democratic Party of Elly Schlein (Only in the late evening did he send a thank you to his candidate sonorously beaten and then add: “We knew that it would not be easy in the Marche region”) and, above all, for Giuseppe Conte that, if the projections are confirmed, in fact it halves the votes (five years ago, Aquaroli He had won with 49.13%of the preferences, leaving 12 points back the center -left while the then grillini had stopped at 8.6%, today they float at 5%, editor’s note). and “To the whole is lost.
Since the very first exit polls it has been understood that the outgoing president, supported by the whole center -right, would also have been falling within. It has gone from 50.8 to 49.1 of the first exit polls, in a few hours, to the real result (we write about half of the sections) which gives ad Aquaroli 52.6% and the challenger 44.2%, with a detachment of eight and a half points, even higher than the latest polls. From the Democratic Party one circulated one a few hours after the vote, taken from Alessia Morani in the race to the Regional Council, which indicated Curls in the lead. Swg, the demoscopic company, not only denied the numbers attributed to her, but threatened the legal ways for what happened. The Democratic Party has tried everything: from the distribution of chips on the beaches to the train to Gaza which, with on board Matteo Riccimoved on the San Benedetto-Pesaro section. The appeal of Curls (“If I win, the first act will be to recognize Palestine”) Obviously he has not paid. A “revolution” has however been accomplished from the Marche polls.
For the first time the Democratic Party leaves the first place to Fratelli d’Italia. The party of Aquaroli He collected 27% of the consensus more than dubbing the other coalition allies. The Democratic Party stops just above 22%, but the real collapse is that of the 5 stars that go from 8.6%five years ago to 5%. The victory of Aquaroli was immediately greeted by the Premier Giorgia Meloni: «He has regional elections in the Marche confirming himself. The voters have rewarded a person who, in recent years, has worked tirelessly for his region and his citizens. I am sure that he will continue in his commitment with the same passion and determination. Congratulations Francesco and good work ». It must be said that Aquaroli It improves the result of five years ago when it was elected by snatching the brands from a hegemony from the center -left who had lasted for 30 years with 49.1 % of the votes.
A national implication the victory of Aquaroli – He was very young mayor in Potenza Picena, then deputy for Fdi, graduated in Economics is passionate about agriculture and tourism – he had it. In Ancona it arrived Arianna Meloni as coordinator of the party who underlined, with the honorable Galeazzo Bignamigroup leader in the Chamber, the centrality of this vote: «The victory of Aquaroli It is the confirmation of the good work that has been done in the area. We had won a first time by defeating the left, we were reconfirmed as had already happened with Marco Marsilio In Abruzzo, the other President of the Region of Fratelli d’Italia. It is an obvious sign that Fdi has a ruling class that knows how to govern ». But from the greeting conference for the victory of Francesco Acquaroli – he wanted all the exponents of the coalition next to him – Two indications came out: the first is that, on the next applications, the center -right is ready to find the square and that Fdi works on a reform of the electoral law set on the idea of the preward or, at least, with indication of the Prime Minister.
The new governor, in his thanks to the voters, underlined: «Five years ago we had produced a strong discontinuity and we faced problems and challenges that had remained unresolved. Thanks also to a positive relationship with the government, which listened to our needs, we started a job ranging from infrastructure to healthcare to economics because our first commitment is to build a future for the young people of the Marche that we now want to complete even with the many reforms that we have put in place “.
From the Marche urns, said that the overtaking of Forza Italia (8.6% against 7.3%) on the League that five years ago had 22.4% of the consents does not create any earthquake in the center -right – if anything, the senator Guido Castelli (Fdi), extraordinary commissioner for reconstruction, with his civic list that took around 4 % has enlarged the perimeter – the climate in the wide field is very different. For hours there was no declaration from the PD. Was Matteo Ricci To break the delay by granting, with just started ballots, the victory ad Aquaroli. In his statements he seemed to grasp a sort of claim. He said that better than that he could not go, that it was an election campaign uphill and thanked the leaders of the center -left who were next to him, including him Giuseppe Conte. In line with the Democratic Party confirmed: without a broad alliance you do not win. But with the wide field it is lost, it would be said (it is the tenth defeat on 13 elected challenges, editor’s note). Matteo Ricci The warranty notice – is accused of competition in corruption by the Pesaro prosecutor – and the media lynching to which he was subjected by the “center -right newspapers”, reiterating: “I did nothing”. And, however, his annoyance and loss in front of a Giuseppe Conte who wanted the investigation papers before saying yes to the wide field and in front of the “fugitive” Democratic Party that abandoned him to his destiny.
Contrary to Aquaroli who was surrounded by the allies and tops of his party, Matteo Ricciat the time of defeat, he left alone. Ah, it seems that he has already booked the flight to Strasbourg: he returns to be a European parliamentarian. With many greetings to the (few) Marches who voted for it.
