A tough and intransigent opposition without excluding the use of the streets. The broad camp is preparing the battle against the reform of the electoral law which will resume its process from Tuesday in the Senate. And he also goes on the attack on the merits of the measure after the rumors about the reintroduction of the ballot in the text in the event that no one reaches the threshold for the award of the prize, which the majority would be reasoning about. On this point, as on the rule that excludes the votes of small children below 3% from the calculation for the national electoral figure, a series of technical investigations are said to be underway in the majority.
Today the centre-right workers met in a call to make a point and should return to discuss things online again tomorrow, in view of the deadline for the amendments set for Tuesday. On the double round, in any case, there would still be no final decisions taken also because - as also emerged in today's meeting - there is no univocal position with the League maintaining its doubts, with FdI and FI more open, despite there being no shortage of those who highlight the possible technical obstacles that may arise from this mechanism. And even those who, like the president of the Senate Ignazio La Russa, despite being in favor highlight the difficulties of changing everything at this point in the race.
In any case, it is always observed in the majority, after Tuesday's deadline, there will still be some time to make the necessary assessments given that, given the adequate number of modification proposals that will arrive from the opposition, it is almost certain that they will not be discussed in the commission and we will start again from the Chamber, without the rapporteur, with the deadline expired but being able to use the tool of reformulations.
As regards the ballot, however, one of the Sherpas observes how "it is a political decision which is up to the leaders, regardless of the technical obstacles which objectively exist".
Meanwhile, the opposition is also preparing and developing a package of shared amendments. "Their way of proceeding is shameful" now they want a run-off "for fear of losing", underline the dem Dario Parrini and Angelo Bonelli of Avs. "An idiot arrives who says something stupid every minute and the majority goes into panic, he adds pieces to the electoral law to try to patch things up", comments Carlo Calenda, leader of Action, with clear reference to Roberto Vannacci.
Furthermore, mobilization outside Parliament cannot be ruled out against the measure. The secretary of +Europa Riccardo Magi called her again. "A mobilization of all oppositions is needed against this plebiscite reform", he underlines, explaining that he will organize an initiative, as happened in the Chamber with the 'Night of Democracy' on the day of approval, 15 September, the date of the final vote in the Chamber at Palazzo Madama.
The topic of the electoral law remains closely linked to the debate within the progressive camp on the primaries.
On this front, M5s remains firm on the request for an open consultation. While critical voices are multiplying in the Democratic Party, to which that of Antonio Decaro was added yesterday. It is "surreal to focus on the leader, the voters ask us what we will do if we win the elections. We have no time to waste", also underlines Nicola Fratoianni of Avs.
What is certain is that between now and the beginning of October the centre-left leaders - who however always remain in contact - will have several opportunities to discuss the point starting from the Avs 'Terra!' party. Then there will be the Festa dell'Unità with the closing of the Dem secretary Elly Schlein and the intervention of the M5s leader Giuseppe Conte. A fundamental event for the Five Star Movement will then be the closing of Nova on 19 and 20 September in Milan.
A busy timetable after which, when the fate of the electoral reform becomes clearer, the need for choice will become more pressing.
