2014 Italian regional elections

2014 Italian regional elections

February–November 2014

Presidents and regional assemblies of Sardinia, Piedmont, Abruzzo, Emilia-Romagna and Calabria

A special round of regional elections in Italy took place in 2014 in five of the country’s twenty regions, including Sardinia (16 February), Piedmont and Abruzzo (25 May), Emilia-Romagna and Calabria (23 November).

Overview

The regional elections were held early in Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna and Calabria, after the respective presidents had resigned from office or the regional councils had been dissolved.

In Emilia-Romagna, the incumbent president Vasco Errani resigned in July 2014 after a scandal, while in Calabria president Giuseppe Scopelliti also resigned in May 2014 after being convicted of abuse of office and false accounting. In Piedmont the 2010 regional election was declared invalid.

The elections were all won by the centre-left coalition.
