Chamber and Senate, barrier threshold: who enters and who doesn't

Will Monti enter Parliament or not? Here is the answer: in the Chamber the threshold is 10% for coalitions and 2% for lists that are part of them (4% for lists not in coalitions) but if a coalition does not reach 10% the single lists that they are part of it they must reach at least 4% to enter – The barrier thresholds in the Senate are higher

Chamber and Senate, barrier threshold: who enters and who doesn't

Monti does he enter Parliament or not? Based on the first electoral projections, the result is in the balance, also because the rules of the game are different in the House and in the Senate.

In particular, to the Camera la barrier threshold is the 10% for coalitions, del 2% for the lists in coalition and del 4% for non-coalition lists but – in the event that a coalition does not reach 10% – the individual lists that are part of it must reach 4% to enter Parliament. At present Monti would enter the Chamber but probably Casini and Fini would not.

Al Senate instead the barrier threshold is the 20%, the 3% for the lists in the coalition and the8% for non-coalition lists. If, on the other hand, a coalition does not reach 20%, the individual lists that are part of it must reach 8% to enter Parliament.
