«It is the data of a defeat, but there is always the need to have the political ability to find positive aspects. Even in such harsh defeats it is mandatory to work to come out ». This was said by the deputy of the Democratic Party, Nico Stumpto, at La 7, commenting on the projections on the regional in Calabria. “We hope that the fork” between the center -right candidate Roberto Occhiuto and the center -left candidate Pasquale Tridico “is lower” than he is emerging. “We found a candidate who keeps the whole coalition together. The coalitions are not made because we are obliged but because a coalition capable of governance must be strategically built. This is a positive fact of this election”.
Stumpto then added: «In Calabria as PD we made two lists by coalitional vocation, with a party choice we would have made one. I think we must all be generous, we did it and we have to do it in the next seventh. The 2-1 will begin next Monday », after the vote in Tuscany. «Tridico accepted knowing that it would be a hard challenge. It was an important value added to the coalition ».
