Anci, Decaro (Pd) will be the heir of Fassino the mayor of Bari sole candidate at the congress of Italian Municipalities – The Republic

it Had started as a race to three, but on the eve of the assembly of Anci, the designation of the new president of the association of the Italian Municipalities is decisive: the place will be covered by Antonio Decaro, mayor of Bari. A placing will be the annual general Meeting and conference which this year will take place precisely in Bari, italy, from 12 to 14 October, at the Fiera del Levante.

the race to The presidency is actually the game immediately after the victory, the ballot of June 19, Chiara Appendino (M5S) that has ripped off to Piero Fassino, the guide of Turin. In accordance with the bylaws Fassino, who was elected in July 2013, the leadership of the Association of Italian municipalities, would be able to remain at the helm of Anci but has immediately made available its mandate: “The association needs a chairman of authority that must be a mayor elected, and then fully legitimized,” he said a few days after the defeat. The national Council, in July last, announced, however, the will to remain at the helm of the Association of Italian Municipalities until the next meeting of congress, which was anticipated in the 12,13 and 14 October, the date initially scheduled for the end of October.

To take the field for the challenge, up until a few days ago, there were three candidates: the mayor of Pesaro, Matteo Ricci, the mayor of Catania Enzo Bianco, former minister of the Interior, and most times the first citizen of Catania and of Bari, Antonio Decaro, in fact. But in these days Ricci, entered in the national secretariat of the Pd as the head of the local Authorities, has pulled out of the race for the presidency of the Association of the municipalities and is expressed clearly in favor of Decaro: “I am convinced that the mayor of Bari is a very good candidate, able to carry instances of all reality internal of the Anci. I hope we can get to a full convergence of institutional on him.”

White has withdrawn his run for the presidency, when, according to some reconstructions – would have understood that the mayors of the Five-Star did not consider his alternative name to that of the renziano Decaro, did not think so that White could give to the Anci, the best guarantees of independence from the government with respect to the first citizen of Bari, italy.

As to the mayors of the centre-right, have never hidden to the right of the Pd to have its own candidate at the helm of the Association of Italian Municipalities – on the other hand, half of the mayors who govern the cities in italy are of the Pd – but ask those who guide you with

Anci greater autonomy with respect to the policies renziane. Request, on the other hand, that in recent months has come from multiple parties, from the mayor of Naples, De Magistris to the representatives, Five-star hotel. It is precisely the attitude of the auditors to the M5S to still leave some uncertainties on the appointment of Bari, but most believe that suspend the judgment on Decaro, probably by abstaining, attendendolo the test of facts.
