Austria has a big election Sunday as well. Hollande is not running again in France.

We may be witnessing the undoing of the EU.

I hope so.

I wonder if Obama has people in Italy assisting Renzi. The admin has messed with a number of foreign elections.

The Government of Italy has been a Cluster F for my entire adult life. From 1960 till today the Prime Ministers spot has switched hands 33 times.

I hadn’t followed this much. The comments below the article are fairly brilliant and informative.

Now I see they are trolling out the “fake news” canard in the NYT as a reason NO is pulling ahead. Seems the globalists see press censorship as their final hope. I know Obama has been on it recently.

With 315 senators the senate is likely on the verge of dysfunctional

I don’t know the function of the lower house, but the senate seems t make it unnecessary
