The Italian regional elections of 1990 were held on 6 and 7 May. The fifteen ordinary regions, created in 1970, elected their fifth assemblies.
The pure party-list proportional representation had traditionally become the electoral system of Italy; it was also adopted for the regional vote. Each Italian province corresponded to a constituency, electing a group of candidates. At the constituency level, seats were divided between open lists using the largest remainder method with a Droop quota. The remaining votes and seats were transferred at the regional level, where they were divided using the Hare quota and automatically distributed to the best losers in the local lists.

The Italian political spectrum, which had been quite static since World War II, began to change rapidly. Umberto Bossi's Lega Nord obtained a stunning result in the general election round, making major gains in the Lombard Regional Council to become the second largest party in that council. The Christian Democrats suffered hugely under League pressure in Northern Italy, but counterbalanced these negative results in Southern Italy. Throughout Italy, the Communists lost ground, with revolutions in the Eastern Bloc marking the final decline of the party. Secretary Achille Occhetto understood that an era was finished and prepared the transition of his group to social-democratic ideas.
Despite these changes, all fifteen councils confirmed their respective political administrations. However, margins in Northern Italy were too close to allow stable leadership, beginning a period of fragmentation in those regions. By the time these councils expired in 1995, Italian politics had changed completely.
The 2004 European Parliament election in Italy was held on 12 and 13 June 2004.
The 1987 Italian general election was held in Italy on 14–15 June 1987. This election was the first Italian election in which the distance between the Christian Democrats and the Communists grew significantly instead of decreasing. Two parties that had not previously been in parliament won representation: the Greens with thirteen seats, and the Northern League with two.
The 1992 Italian general election was held on 5 and 6 April 1992. They were the first without the traditionally second most important political force in Italian politics, the Italian Communist Party (PCI), which had been disbanded in 1991. Most of its members split between the more democratic socialist-oriented Democratic Party of the Left (PDS), while a minority who did not want to renounce the communist tradition became the Communist Refoundation Party (PRC); between them, they gained around 4% less than what the already declining PCI had obtained in the 1987 Italian general election, despite PRC absorbing the disbanded Proletarian Democracy (DP).
General elections were held in Italy on Sunday 2 and also on Monday 3 June 1946. They were the first after World War II and elected 556 deputies to the Constituent Assembly. Theoretically, a total of 573 deputies were to be elected, but the election did not take place in the Julian March and in South Tyrol, which were under military occupation by the United Nations.
The Venetian regional election of 1995 took place on 23 April 1995.
The 1984 European Parliament election in Italy was held on 17 June 1984. The election took place just a week after the death of Italian Communist Party (PCI) leader Enrico Berlinguer; this fact greatly influenced the vote, producing a historical result.
The 1989 European Parliament election in Italy was held on 18 June 1989.
The Sardinian regional election of 2004 took place on 12–13 June 2004.
The politics of Lombardy, a region of Italy, takes place in a framework of a semi-presidential representative democracy, whereby the President of the Region is the head of government, and of a pluriform multi-party system. Legislative power is vested in the Regional Council of Lombardy, while executive power is exercised by the Regional Government led by the President, who is directly elected by the people. The current Statute, which regulates the functioning of the regional institutions, has been in force since 2008.
