Elly Schlein in the lead as a possible prime minister candidate for the center-left, followed by Giuseppe Conte and the mayor of Genoa Silvia Salis, both assuming a scenario of high turnout and low turnout in the primaries. In the first case, the Dem leader would get around 31% of you, Conte 27% and Salis 17%. This is what emerges from the latest Youtrend survey for Sky TG24. Counting the voters of the Pd, Avs, M5s and the centrist area, the share of voters on the total base is 61%. In the low turnout scenario, Schlein is at 38.6%, Conte at 22.3% and Salis at 20.7%. The share of voters drops in this case to 34%. Among voters of the Pd, Avs, Five Star Movement and the centrist area, 41% would like the prime minister candidate to be the leader of the party most voted for in politics, 26% would prefer primaries and 25% would prefer an agreement between the leaders. 8% do not express their opinion. The survey was carried out with CAWI methodology between 18 and 22 September 2026 on a sample of 810 interviewees representative of the adult population resident in Italy, investigated by gender and age quotas, stratified by educational qualification and ISTAT distribution of residence. The margin of error is ±3.4% with a 95% confidence interval.
