The Vatican has always meddled in Italian affairs, but it appears that no pope had granted an audience to party leaders during elections with the exception of Pius XII. He received Gedda several times in '46 and '48.

The latest news is that neither Berlusconi nor Casini will attend the audience which was allegedly organized last September for the European PPE delegation.
