Debora Serracchiani (Pd) is the new president of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region. Outgoing governor Renzo Tondo (PDL) telephoned around 9 last night to congratulate his opponent, who prevailed in the local elections by a handful of votes, less than two thousand: 39,39% against 39,00% . Disappointment for the 5 Stars: "We expected something more", admitted the candidate Saverio Galluccio, who remained below 20% (at 19,21%).
The final voter turnout was 50,51%, a sharp drop from that of the previous elections, which had been 72,33%. In 2008, however, there was a vote for both regional and political elections.
