with 5 million votes to go it seems we lost the total count of the senate unless some very weird things are going on in Sicily Campania and Lazio.
It all goes down to knowing all the details in the law about how the seats are distributed.... maybe there is a weird chance.. although I doubt it.

Re: HOUSE 70% SENATE 90% (none / 0)

I givve up hope on Sicily. A lot of districts were just included into the Senate tally, and they again raised CdL's percentage.

(All of Italy at 92.96%: 49.11% : 50.03%)

Re: HOUSE 70% SENATE 90% (none / 0)

it is going to be 1% behind in the senate....it seems we are going to lose this election. Now Prodi really faces complete defeat.

Paranoia time (none / 0)

A large number of voting districts in Palermo and Catania seem to have 'waited' for later in the evening. They had time to know how much to 'correct'. De Gondi says you can't game the vote count, I am not so sure...

Re: Paranoia time (none / 0)

I'm back. It's very hard to game a count once it's out of the electoral seat. The problem is electronic voting with USB sticks troting around the country side.

Re: Paranoia time (none / 0)

If there are people from every party in every poll station it is not possible to cheat after polling....this is done in Spain and there is no way to cheat. Of course you can buy votes before....
