With the definitive approval of the new electoral law, when Italians return to vote they will be able to choose everything: the party, the coalition, the program, the candidate for prime minister and - again - their own parliamentarian. The centre-right reintroduces the preferential vote, which had been missing for over thirty years, giving citizens the power to directly choose who represents them". Thus Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni after the final approval of the electoral law. "Stable governments and greater participation mean more continuity, more responsibility and more ability to give concrete answers to Italians".
