Suppletive, the Pd candidates Conte for the seat of Gualtieri. Calenda challenges him

Suppletive, duel Conte-Calenda for the seat of Gualtieri

Twist for the supplementary In the college of Rome 1, the Pd has chosen his candidate to take the place of the new mayor of Rome Roberto Gualtieri. But it’s not a Dem, Enrico Letta has decided to advance the candidacy of the leader of the M5s Giuseppe Conte. We will vote on January 16th. The move by the secretary of the Democratic Party – reads the Corriere della Sera – is a remarkable assist for Conte who, lately, appeared in great difficulty. Thus the former prime minister will be able to control the parliamentary groups more and to parry the blows of Luigi Di Maio, his great, undeclared internal opponent. AND Read has all the convenience of having a Count strengthened in view of the Colle risk, where the leader of the Democratic Party knows he is gambling a large part of his credibility.

Carlo Calenda, however, – continues the Corriere – taken off guard (he had looked for Letta “a dozen times, without receiving an answer,” he says), he did not like this joint Pd-5 Star move at all. And now the leader of Action might decide to run for that college against With you. It would be a real tear, fraught with consequences because a possible candidacy of the leader of Action in Rome 1 would take away votes from Conte. The symbol for the leader of the M5s is already ready. It will echo what with which Enrico Letta presented himself in the supplementary of Siena: “With Giuseppe Conte“. The only thing missing is that the person concerned, that is the former prime minister, publicly dissolves the reservation. Even if he did it privately (“It is an honor and a commitment“, he said).
