The disaster of the left in the elections: now the comrades vote Movimento 5 Stelle – L’Espresso

The  disaster of the left in the elections: now the  comrades vote 5 Star Movement
Stefano Fassina

Matteo Renzi has had an easy time making fun of the left: “They’re between 3 and 4. If they okay, perfect, but still …,” the premier said committed to show that for the Democratic Party – even though he is said “not satisfied” – could have been much worse.

he could go wrong has gone wrong as a Stefano Fassina and Giorgio Airaudo , for example, who they have seen the vows they thought they could catch going towards the 5 stars. Always Renzi fact rages: “If anyone does not want to vote the Democratic Party,” he says, “rate 5 stars. It seems to me indisputable seen the result of Airaudo and Fassina “. Candidates who remains, at this point, only to decide who to support in the runoff, both focused more on the 5 stars. Will decide in the coming hours, but to help the choice there could be some moves of the Movement now knows that he could still widen left: in Rome, for example, also has this feature indicating urbanist Paul Berdini as a commissioner of the junta Rays future.

the mechanism behind the meager results, however, seems to be just what indicated by Renzi. And it is the exception to the left of the disaster, the case of Naples, to prove the rule. The phenomenon Luigi De Magistris has indeed literally emptied the Movement 5 stars that is yes grew compared to the previous government, when it took 1.7 percent with Robert Fico, who collected 6,441 votes, but it has halved compared with the results we had in town at the last regional and European 2014 when she danced between 24 and 25 percent.

Today the candidate Matteo Brambilla stops at 9,63 with 38,863 preferences. It does not penetrate, therefore, for the embankment is De Magistris, capable of intercepting, by the outgoing mayor, a little ‘anti-system vote. He, however, and not the left: why even from Naples is nothing but good news to come to the area of ​​Italian Left. The list due to the joint project of the left takes in fact little more than picked up by Fassina in Rome: 19,945 votes that are worth 5.30 percent. A Naples The Coalition works for the Civic Party of De Magistris, who took 51,869 votes, and Dema, Democracy Autonomy, the animated list by the brother of De Magistris, Claudio: there came other 28 thousand votes. So what happens photographer SWG: De Magistris – and the left that he embodies, a public spirit proudly populist – took 20 percent of the votes of the Democratic Party and 40 per cent of the votes of the M5S, the kind of regional. The other candidates in the so-called radical left, by the Movement have instead been deflated.

The most striking case is that of Giorgio Airaudo . From the parts of Italian Left we were confident that the deputy union FIOM would already exceeded 6 percent and hoped someone in 8. Instead he stood at 3.7 per cent, with 14,166 votes, but left even further behind the Torino Shared list. List that was his boast, however, along with the workhorse of a municipality with him that he would not use the vouchers. The list was the first and happier if genuinely united left: there were all, as a Possible Sel, through the PRC, and they stood together in a much better climate than the quarrelsome Roman scene, capable of producing the mess of ‘ exclusion from elections. But he has only collected 10 thousand votes, lacking even the threshold of 3 per cent: 2.81. And it is only a small consolation (but it is an interesting fact) that the amber list in support of Piero Fassino – the animated list by some former Sel who have broken with respect to the unitary project not wanting to abandon the idea of ​​a center – has taken little or nothing: 7,253 votes, 2.02 percent.

that even the allied left lists of the Democratic Party have gone wrong is a fact that is confirmed we move to Milan . With the large face of Pisapia on posters, the list Left X Milan has collected no more than 19,281 votes: 3.82 percent. Moreover, it will be said, the nomination left Basil Rizzo: 19,143 votes apply to the unitary adventure left 3.56 percent. But at this point it seems a race between turtles. The one list Tsipras, the European past, the city picked up 6.49 percent, with 37,161 votes. Where are they now?

Rome is pretty obvious. They went to the Movement 5 stars, along with a good dose of votes of the Democratic Party, considering that abstention has decreased since the last local elections of 2013 (57 percent today, 52 in the first round of Marino). The Democratic Party has left the street exactly 60 thousand votes and ten percentage points, stopping at 200,790 acclaim equal to 17.20 percent. The left in municipal 2013 had collected instead 63 thousand votes in the center-left coalition with Sel and 26 thousand with an independent candidacy Sandro Medici, arrived today first among the candidates councilors Mayor Fassina list.

Fassina, around of votes it has taken 57 thousand, however, concentrated in the most affluent neighborhoods in the city, despite the many words spent by the candidate on “social unrest” of the Romans, words perhaps considered too theoretical. Compared to three years ago (but also against European of 2014 when the list Tsipras took in the city 72 thousand votes) are missing 36 thousand. They are finished between 453mila votes rained down on Virginia Rays is therefore very likely: the Movement 5 stars in 2013 took 149,665 votes, stopping to 12.43 percent. The growth is exponential also compared with European, which in any case had clocked a flattering 24.95 percent and 293mila votes.

To the left is only a little better Bologna where the unified path has perhaps more entrenched bases and also the candidacy for mayor seemed less impromptu to Fassina. Federico Martelloni, with 12,200 votes, takes a round 7 percent, which is still less, however, than the list Tsipras took to European: in 2014 were 16,709 votes equal all’8,89 percent. It goes down, then, and you do it well, comparing the result in municipal earlier. In Bologna, as in Rome, the only civil list “with Amelia to Bologna with Vendola” – daughter of the nomination in the primaries of Amelia Frascaroli – had collected 19,358 votes. A piece and the face of that list were unwilling to break with Merola, it is true (the list “Shared Cities with Amelia” has collected 4,897 votes), but the votes are so many lost. And in support Merola in 2013 there was also a list of Rifondazione Comunista: are other 2,766 votes, many of which are probably finished with 5 stars. Maximum Bugani, in fact, in 2011 he took 19,969 votes. Today the Movement, with the same candidate, it takes nine thousand more confirming the result of the European when picked up 28 thousand votes. Some came from the left, you can think of, and some even from the Democratic Party that still compared to 2013 has lost 12 thousand votes in Bologna (but the turnout was 71 percent, while today it is 59), and since the last European has lost more than 40 thousand.

the situation is different for Cagliari , but it seems a dated 2011. Massimo Zedda vote is in fact of Sel (although in recent months it has kept out the unit path, maintaining a strong relationship with the Democratic Party and even with Renzi) and won the first round. It’s so vintage, his victory, which in coalition with the Democratic Party was still the symbol of Sel: 5,597 votes, is 7.84 percent. Four elected. They are then added the 1,158 votes of the PRC, also in coalition. Sel in this case is increased, albeit only in percentage, compared to 2011, when three directors elected with 07.02 percent and 5,954 votes. Rifondazione had instead taken twice: 2,305. Compared to European data has improved, but especially for the turnout in 2014 was 44 percent while the administrative was 60: the list Tsipras took 3,674 votes, representing 6.40 per cent.
