Milan mayoral election candidate developments
Overview
Political maneuvering has intensified regarding the selection of mayoral candidates for the upcoming Milan municipal elections.
On the center-right side, Matteo Salvini proposed holding primary elections in Milan to resolve internal coalition disputes. Salvini suggested that if leaders cannot reach a consensus in Rome regarding a candidate, citizens should decide through a democratic exercise, potentially during the second weekend of November. He expressed support for Lega vice secretary Silvia Sardone amidst disagreements from other coalition members.
On the center-left side, Pierfrancesco Majorino, the Democratic Party group leader in the Lombardy Regional Council, officially announced his candidacy. Majorino intends to participate in center-left primaries, focusing his platform on the cost of living, housing, employment, and the climate crisis.
