The election of the mayor has been postponed to a runoff between Valeria Cittadin – who came close to victory in the first round – and Edoardo Gaffeo.
The ballot is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 23, and Monday, June 24.
It is worth noting that the combined votes of Cittadin’s lists have surpassed the absolute majority threshold at 50.24%.
