Italian elections

My comment is Lupo Solitario's famous phrase during the 80s.

Ah beh beh! Che schifo!

(or in other words: yuck!)

In seats it's worse than in percentages ... especially in the Camara. I read the other day about the newly adopted election system including a kind of "winner bonus" that accords extra seats to whoever wins so as to assure a more stable government, was wondering how that would work out if the elections were this close. Couldnt help noticing the projection for the seats is older tho, so perhaps there's still hope?

Italy Berlusconi bloc disputes Prodi victory claim
Tue Apr 11, 2006 2:07 AM BST

ROME (Reuters) - Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's coalition on Tuesday disputed centre-left leader Romano Prodi's claim to have won Italy's general election.

Berlusconi spokesman Paolo Bonaiuti told reporters that the centre-right bloc would call for a "scrupulous" check of election ballots.

Earlier, Prodi claimed victory in Italy's election which incomplete official data showed on a knife-edge.

Isn't knife "schifo"? I forget so much and never learned much in the first place.

So Prodi has claimed victory? I missed that.

Italy's Prodi wins lower house - provisional data
Tue Apr 11, 2006 2:27 AM BST

Centre-left leader Romano Prodi's alliance has won control of Italy's lower house of parliament in general elections, provisional final official data showed on Tuesday.

Prodi's multi-party coalition won 49.8 percent of the votes for the lower house compared to 49.7 percent for Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's centre-right bloc, the Interior Ministry said releasing the provisional data.

Under Italy's new electoral rules, Prodi's coalition will take 340 seats in the 630-member lower house of parliament.

Italy's centre-left confident of Senate victory
Tue Apr 11, 2006 6:49 AM IST

Italy's centre-left opposition led by Romano Prodi said on Tuesday it was confident it had clinched a victory in the Senate thanks to a handful of foreign seats set aside for Italians living abroad.

The Interior Ministry said Italian Prime Minister Silvio won 155 of the 315 seats up for grabs in the Senate against 154 seats for the centre-left opposition.

However, this breakdown does not take into account another six seats set aside for foreign constituencies and the centre-left said it had won four of those.

OK, now we wait for Berlusconi to go to the UN...

schifo: nausea, not the dizziness kind, but when you want to puke.
I lived over 4 years in Italy, and I just fail to recognize Berlusconi Country is the same country.

(Knife: coltello
A totally different word).

Yeh, I recognize coltello now that you mention it.

On Berlusconi country and not recognizing it, I have trouble with Bush country...

Bush country, I have no trouble recognizing... it's the ol' Johnson/Nixon/Ford/Carter/Reagan/Bush Sr. country.
It became unrecognizable during a happy interlude in the 90s. Smile

Yeh.

Seems by now to be sure that Prodi took the lower house ('camera') by a slim margin and could get a small majority in the upper house ('senate') as well.

Final and official results by the Italian Interior Ministry

I don't think there is a big difference between them. They are both servants of globalization and the "New world order".

I just preferred Berluscani because far leftism annoys me, and Prodi had this kind of parties with him.

Oh, but whose deluded antics are to entertain us if Berlusconi is no longer Prime Minister?

Call Girls Satisfy Silvio

Tuesday April 04, 2006

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has admitted calling sex chat lines - to ask women what they thought of his policies.

The media tycoon, 69, phoned nine women during a sleepless night at his luxury villa in Sardinia.

He called the girls to ask what they thought of him and his political opponent Romano Prodi.

Mr Berlusconi told party workers: "Seven out of the nine young ladies I called said they preferred me, which is very good news indeed."

One aide said: "He was delighted that the women were in favour of him. It certainly perked him up."

But a member of Mr Prodi's camp said: "These women say anything to please the desperate men who call them."

The revelation came just hours before a head-to-head TV debate between the two political leaders.

Bravo Brodi!

Berlusconi seems to be taking the "no, it's mine, you can't have it!" approach to the election results presently . . .

To clarify, the graphic I don't understand was in Walter's last post, not the BBC news clip.
