No signs of change from the polls in Sardinia, where once again strong abstention prevailed (turnout at 56%) . But those who went to vote on the island did so in the name of continuity .
In Selargius (the only municipality with more than 15 thousand inhabitants, in addition to Oristano) and Quartucciu the outgoing mayors have been re-elected. Gigi Concu , Selargino doc, engineer, 55 years old, closed the game with 58% of the votes. A Quartucciu result without history for Pietro Pisu who exceeds 60%.
Armchairs also confirmed in Lanusei, Sant'Antioco, Terralba, Arzachena, Villasor, Calangianus, Loiri and so on. In Oristano , with 53.7% of votes for Massimiliano Sanna who thus avoided the ballot, the voters nevertheless reiterated their preference for the center-right which governed in the last five years with Andrea Lutzu, who was not reappointed.
For the president of the Region Christian Solinas it is the signal that the center-right holds up and holds up well even if his party, the Psd'Az, pays a pledge for having separated in Selargius from the rest of the center-right and from the outgoing mayor Concu, supporting the chosen candidate instead from Pd and M5S Franco Camba which stopped at 39.3%. Manuela Chia did not arrive with 263 votes.
Bad for the center-left, who had pre-empted the defeat but hoped with a smaller detachment.
Fourth consecutive term for Giuseppe Ciccolini (Bitti), Samuele Gaviano (Serri) and Franco Melas (Siamanna) : first in Italy by virtue of a regional law in force at the time of the presentation of the lists - and then challenged by the Government - which allowed exceed the three-year limit.
