Re: PALERMO UNLOADS! (none / 0)

Now I guess it depends on the 2% limit and the abroad vote.

Re: What is the 2% limit? (none / 0)

If I got it right, only those members of a coalition are counted that passed 2%, plus the first one below. If so, bad for the Left. But I am not sure I got that rule right.

Re: PALERMO UNLOADS! (none / 0)

I peeked at the foreign vote; barely a quarter counted, but surprisingly clearly for the Left. Might help di Pietro.

Re: PALERMO UNLOADS! (none / 0)

It seems half-half for now but very low counting still.

They are conservative but I think they may not be part of Berlusconi's coalition.

Re: PALERMO UNLOADS! (none / 0)

It depends on the abroad vote but the total vote of the list counts, no matter the ratio. And if you win the majority of the vote with the list, you win the majority in la camera. As far as I understand the seats are redistributed so that you get 340 seats no matter what.

A pleasure
