Mandatoriccio makes history. In fact, in the town of Cosenza the two candidates for mayor Teresa Maria Villella (Nuova Alba) and the challenger Cataldo Iozzi (United for Mandatoriccio) obtained exactly the same number of preferences: 852 votes each, out of 1,704 valid votes. A sensational draw (50% to 50%) which, by law in municipalities with under 15,000 inhabitants, will force citizens to return to the polls for a run-off in two weeks. A country split exactly in two which will now experience another historic day and two weeks of great curiosity.
