The self-governing body of the judiciary will be completed with Paola Balducci and Pierantonio Zanettin, while as regards the Consulta we are moving towards the fourteenth black smoke - The Democratic Party and Forza Italia have instructed their parliamentarians to vote blank ballot, still holding in suspended the nominations of Violante and Bruno.

Parliament: today Balducci and Zanettin towards the CSM, 14th flop on the Consulta

Five days of hiatus did not help Parliament to find an agreement that would unlock the work of the Senate. Today in the Chamber of Deputies the meeting of the Chambers in joint session has resumed for the election of two judges of the Constitutional Court and two members of the CSM.

In all likelihood, the self-governing body of the judiciary will be completed with Paola Balducci and Pierantonio Zanettin, while as far as the Consulta is concerned, we are heading towards the fourteenth black smoke.

The Democratic Party and Forza Italia have instructed their parliamentarians to vote for a blank ballot, still holding the candidacies of Luciano Violante Donato Bruno pending, none of whom has so far managed to reach the necessary quorum of 570 preferences. 

“It is advisable to concentrate on the CSM – Ettore Rosato, of the secretariat of the Pd explained to Sky microphones – to allow him to work, but we confirm our choice of Violante on the Consulta. We continue to focus on her experience ”.

It would be better, the reasoning goes, to proceed with the election of the two members of the CSM and to keep the election of the two judges of the Consulta frozen until Bruno's situation is clarified, who could be reached by a guarantee notice. Il Fatto Quotidiano wrote that Fi's candidate is currently being investigated in Isernia.
