The 2024 Abruzzo regional election took place on 10 March 2024. The election was for all 29 elected seats of the Regional Council of Abruzzo, as well as the president of Abruzzo who, along with the second placed presidential candidate, automatically became members of the Regional Council. It was the second election of the 2024 Italian regional elections.
The election was won by the centre-right coalition's incumbent president, Marco Marsilio of Brothers of Italy, over the independent centre-left coalition candidate, Luciano D'Amico, an economist and professor at the University of Teramo, 53.5% to 46.5%. The centre-left coalition, which remains divided at the national level but came from an upset win and gain in the 2024 Sardinian regional election, included both the Five Star Movement and the Action and Italia Viva parties. Despite this combination, known as campo larghissimo, it was not enough for the opposition to win in Abruzzo, although it lost by 7% in what was the fourth most right-wing region of Italy.
In the 2019 Abruzzo regional election, Marco Marsilio and the centre-right coalition won over the Democratic Party and centre-left coalition candidate Giovanni Legnini 48.0% to 31.3%, with 20.2% of the votes going to the Five Star Movement candidate Sara Marcozzi, who later in July 2023 joined Forza Italia within the centre-right coalition. [1] [2] In January 2022, the election was called for 10 March 2024. [3]
The electoral law is based on proportional representation and is thus proportional to the share of the votes each party receives, with an electoral threshold of 4% of the vote for parties that are not members of coalitions and 2% for those included in a coalition. The election of the Regional Council occurs on a regional basis within the four districts of Abruzzo, coinciding with the four provinces of the region. The district of Chieti elects eight councilors, while Pescara, L'Aquila, and Teramo each elect seven councillors. The president of the Regional Council and the presidential candidate who received the second largest number of votes also become members of the regional council. The candidate who obtains the majority of valid votes at the regional level becomes president. Every candidate must be linked to a party list or an electoral coalition running for the Regional Council. A majority of 60% to 65% of the seats is then allocated to the party or coalition of the elected president. [4]
