Ballots, the centre-right wins in Lecco, Arezzo and Macerata. Chieti, Trani and Agrigento to the centre-left
In the 42 municipalities at the ballot the turnout was 52%, eight points lower than in the first round (60.5%)
The centre-right is confirmed in Arezzo and Macerata. And it expels Lecco. The centre-left held Chieti and Trani and conquered Agrigento. These are the main results of the ballot round in the six provincial capitals involved, out of a total of 42. The overall turnout was 52%, eight points lower than in the first round (60.5%). Considering the total of the 18 provincial capitals on the ballot in this administrative round, according to the calculations, the centre-left went from 8 outgoing mayors to 10 and the centre-right from 5 to 6, while civic mayors or mayors expressed by other parties dropped from 5 to 2
In Arezzo Marcello Comanducci (centre-right) won. The centre-left candidate Vincenzo Ceccarelli, 11.45 points behind after the first round, failed to make up the gap. Comanducci won the ballot with over 55%. Complicating the centre-left's comeback was the fact that civic candidate Marco Donati, also supported by Azione (over 20% of the votes in the first round), did not want to cast his vote in the runoff. In Macerata, the outgoing centre-right mayor Sandro Parcaroli (who stopped at 49.96%, missing victory in the first round by 10 votes) won the second round over the centre-left candidate Gianluca Tittarelli, collecting over 54%. In Chieti Giovanni Legnini (centre-left) is the new mayor. The former vice-president of the Csm - who was ahead in the first round with 47.2% - won the second with 52.6%. His centre-right opponent, Cristiano Sicari, who was also supported in the runoff by the Lega Nord's Mario Colantonio and the civic Alessandro Carbone, stopped at 47.5%.
Netto success of the centre-left in Agrigento where Michele Sodano won with over 70% over rival Dino Alonge (centre-right). In Agrigento, the centre-right came out divided in the first round and there was no appearance in the runoff. In fact, the Leghist candidate Luigi Gentile (14% in the first round), also supported by the DC and Noi moderati, refused any political agreement. At Lecco the outgoing centre-left mayor Mauro Gattinoni was instead beaten (48.2%) by the centre-right challenger Filippo Boscagli (51.8%) already ahead after the first round. In Trani, the centre-left was confirmed with the victory of Marco Galiano (51.4%) over centre-right rival Angelo Guarriello.
Of note is the clear victory of the centre-right in Vigevano (Pavia). Here, the centre-left candidate Rossella Buratti, ahead after the first round with 34.3%, and Paolo Previde Massara, supported by Forza Italia but not by the rest of the centre-right (Fdi-Lega-Nm), who had chosen instead to support Riccardo Ghia, third with 21.45%, challenged for the mayoral seat. Fourth was Furio Suvilla, a candidate supported by General Roberto Vannacci, who had recorded an exploit (14.2)%. Suvilla invited the people of Vigevano to vote blank or no ballot in the runoff: the League and Noi Moderati chose to leave their voters free to vote. Fratelli d'Italia, on the other hand, publicly sided with Previde Massara. In the end, the centre-right candidate Previde Massara won with 57.3%
