Sounds promising for Italy ?!?
Shake things up, show the rest of Europe that “populist” parties are rising because so many people are beyond sick of the same old b.s. Start protecting the borders and driving out the Islamists!!
good job Italy. good job Bannon.
Is it just me or are the global elitist scoring setback after setback in Europe?
There’s still hope for Italy.
Election projections in Italy point to rise of populist and anti-EU forces, prospect of hung Parliament

The “dream” is for 5 star to join with the center right coalition. Not sure what it would take but needs to happen. Also will be interesting to see if the League out polls B’s party.
Preliminary results
The Center Right Lead by Silvio B placed first, within the alliance of parties though Silvio’s Forza Italia placed behind the Lega (Lega Nord which now tries to appeal to the whole country).
The 5 Star Movement placed 2nd (and was the largest single party)
Former PM Matteo “Reek” Renzi’s “center”-left placed a distant third a “dismal” performance especially given the “modest economic recovery” the media claims is going on.
What will happen? Who knows. The Center-right peeps and 5 Star cooperating is the best case. PM could be Silvio (less likley), Lega Leader Matteo Salvini or 5 Star Leader Luigi Di Maio. It sounds like Five Star will insist on taking the lead.
Possible chaos if no deal is reached. One paper (”La Stampa” in Turin) said “Di Maio wins, Italy ungovernable”. I assume it’s their equivalent of the Washington Post.
The democrat party was rejected. That’s what matters. The prime minister will not be a democrat. It remains to be seen who it will be, but Renzi and Gentiloni do not have a shot at it. Probably the 5 Star guy.
The Italians have said that they do not want the democrats who have been kissing m*slim a$$. Nothing else matters.
