Defeated centre-right Sardinia
governor candidate Paolo Truzzu said after conceding to
centre-left candidate and new governor Alessandra Todde that the
loss was his alone and national factors had had nothing to with
it.
The Cagliari mayor said he had sent a message to Premier Giorgia
Meloni, head of his rightwing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party,
acknowledging his responsibility for the defeat.
"But the reading of the vote is simple: these were not elections
influenced by national factors and the fact that proves it is
the result in Cagliari, which, rather than voting for Todde,
voted against me.
"It would have been enough to have three-four more points to win
the whole race.
"That is why I say that the responsibility is mine. There are
several Sardinias. We had a great result outside the urban
centres. The causes of the Cagliari vote? There are many
factors: split voting, construction sites"..
