Six weeks before the EU elections, the popularity of the post-fascist ruling party “Fratelli d Italia” (Brothers of Italy – FdI) around Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is declining, a survey shows. The opposition Social Democrats, on the other hand, are slightly on the rise.
According to a survey by polling institute SWG, Meloni’s party has fallen to 26.8 percent, down 0.4 percent from a month ago. FdI remains the strongest party.
Five-star move in third place
As the survey by the TV channel ‘La 7’ showed on Tuesday, the strongest Italian opposition party, the Democratic Party (PD – Partito Democratico), obtained 0.6 percent of the votes and reached 20 percent. The left-wing populist Five Star Movement around former Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte finished in third place with 15.9 percent.
The League around Transport Minister Matteo Salvini, allied with Meloni’s party, was expected to get 8.5 percent of the vote in the EU parliamentary elections, while Forza Italia, founded by former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who died in June, came to 8.4 percent. .
The election campaign for the EU parliamentary elections in Italy is entering its decisive phase. The election symbols were deposited at the Ministry of the Interior in Rome on Sunday and Monday. 42 party symbols were presented in view of the election match that will take place in Italy on June 8 and 9. In the meantime, the parties are also busy refining their electoral lists, which must be presented no later than May 1. Several heavyweights from Italian politics are taking part in the election campaign.
