The objective of the constitutional reform for the direct election of the prime minister is to obtain a qualified majority, but if we go to a referendum, the yes vote wins. Giorgia Meloni explains that “it is a reform that we wrote after having gathered the sensitivity of the vast majority of Italians, having listened to all political forces, commercial associations and social partners. which can have the broadest possible consensus and achieve a two-thirds majority. If we fail to achieve this objective, the word will pass to the Italians, who with the referendum will evaluate the merits of the reform and decide whether it is useful for Italy or not,” he said. The Prime Minister told Affaritaliani. “I am convinced of that, in this case, the majority of Italians will take advantage of the historic opportunity to accompany Italy in the Third Republic and make it a mature, more stable and efficient democracy”, says the Prime Minister.
The occasion is the survey carried out by Lab21.01 for the website, on the possible confirmatory referendum on the government from which a clear victory of yes to the constitutional reform launched by the Meloni government emerges. The survey reveals that 57.3% of Italians are in favor of the direct election of the prime minister launched by the government led by Giorgia Meloni and which will now begin the process in Parliament. 42.7% of the sample was against. In the event of a referendum, 48.2% of the sample declares that they will vote yes. Only 25.2% will vote no and 26.7% of those interviewed still declare themselves undecided. 60.1% of those interviewed consider the role of the candidate for prime minister to be very important in the event of direct elections.
