Sardinia: Wind changing, some wouldn't have bet on it - Schlein

(ANSA) - ROME, FEB 27 - Centre-left candidate Alessandra Todde's apparent victory in the Sardinia governor race shows that the wind is changing in Italian politics, centre-left Democratic Party (PS) leader Elyy Schlein said after the PD teamed up in a 'broad field' alliance with the populist leftist 5-Star Movement (M5S) for the island campaign.
    Asked if the wind was changing, Schelin replied "Yes, the wind is changing, and some people didn't even bet that we would get this far".
    Schlein was speaking alongside M5S leader and ex premier Giuseppe Conte at the electoral headquarters in Cagliari with many PD AND M5S local leaders.
    "I am very excited because, as Alessandra says, what is looming, we are confidently waiting for the latest data, is a victory of the Sardinians first and foremost," said Schlein, the PD's first female leader, of what would be Sardinia's first woman governor.. (ANSA).
