Elections in Crotone, 21 councilors with the mayor Voice in a room where 11 women will sit ALL THE ELECTED

It will be an almost completely renewed city council, with 11 representatives from the other half of the sky and in the name of civility, the one elected on Sunday and Monday. An assembly that will remain in office for the next 5 years. This time too, there is no lack of a majority of citizens as has always been the desire of the mayor Vincenzo Voce, which however is also colored with the symbols of the main Italian parties.

The new city council

The majority were awarded 21 seats, plus naturally the mayor. The vote rewarded the “Crescere” movement, founded by Voce and his deputy Sandro Cretella. Crescere is the first list in the city with 15% of the preferences. Among the most voted in the majority was Sandro Cretella, president of the movement headed by the re-elected mayor, with 962 preferences. Also elected with Cretella were the outgoing president of the municipal council Mario Megna, who collected 635 preference votes, Romana Zangari (370 votes), the outgoing councilor Vincenzo Familiari (346 votes) and Fabiola Marrelli (303 votes). Instead, the following were elected under the symbol of ValorizziAmo Crotone (which obtained 10.9% of the votes and four seats): Carmelita Menga (730 preference votes), Alberto Laratta (599), the outgoing budget councilor Antonio Francesco Scandale (391 votes), Vittorio Masotta (389).

For the Progetto in Comune – Kr list (10.1% of the votes and three seats), the outgoing councilor and Papanice government official Antonio Megna (827 votes), Antonella Stefanizzi (780), Sebastiano Aloia (712) passed instead.
The symbol of the Brothers of Italy enters the Crotone municipal council for the first time (after a popular election). The party list led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni obtained 9.6% for a total of three seats which went to Saverio Flotta (981 votes), Valentina Borrelli (429 votes) and Gaia Marseglia (431 votes). Still in the camp of the majority that reconfirmed Vincenzo Voce at the Palazzo del Comune, the Insieme civic list took 9.5% of the votes and will thus obtain 3 councilors: the outgoing Marisa Luana Cavallo (514 votes), Giovanni De Luca (461 votes), Francesco Nocera (233 votes).

Three councilors were also elected for Forza Italia and Libertà è Democracy (which also nominated members of Noi Moderati as candidates). They are Pisano Pagliaroli (603 votes), Fabio Pisciuneri (407) and the outgoing Dalila Venneri (331 votes).

Ten seats are assigned to the minority lists, plus one that goes to the unelected mayoral candidate Giuseppe Trocino. In opposition, the most voted party was the Democratic Party which, with 11.07% of the votes, is second in the city. The Democratic Party obtains three councilors: the outgoing Andrea De Vona (646 preferences), the former city secretary Annagiulia Caiazza (524) and Mario Galea (399), already a member of the Democratic Party in the city council in recent years, but then left the party.
It is from the “Città Futura” list (9.3% total and 3 seats). who supported Giuseppe Trocino, the most voted candidate overall: this is Telemaco Pedace, son of the former councilor Enrico, who obtained 1,101 votes. Pamela Guidoni (387) and the outgoing Giuseppe Fiorino (328) also pass. In the Trocino mayoral list – For our Crotone (9.2% and 3 seats) the following were elected to the Council: Alfonso Gaetano (602 votes), Mario Venneri (225), Massimo Criscuolo (192 votes).
The 5 Star Movement came in last place among the lists that passed the threshold and with just over 4% sent only Alessia Romano, a Demos candidate, to the council.

Among those excluded, in addition to the candidates for mayor Fabrizio Meo and Salvatore Barresi who did not pass the 3% threshold, the outgoing Pnrr councilor Luca Bossi stands out who, as a candidate on the Insieme list, stopped at 228 votes. Also excluded (for now) from the new municipal council of the second Voce consiliatura are the other councilors: Giovanni Greco (who got 132 votes), Nicola Corigliano (250 votes), the young Federica Zizza, recently appointed (143 preferences) and Rosa Maria Parise (143), who held the position of councilor for public works.
