The parliamentary by-elections in Reggio Calabria have become a focal point for competing political visions. General Roberto Vannacci held a major rally in Siderno to support Futuro Nazionale candidate Domenico Giannetta, emphasizing a platform of security and traditional right-wing values. Vannacci stated his movement aims to represent a “different right” focused on concrete issues.

As the elections approach on September 27 and 28, Giannetta is scheduled to participate in a public meeting titled ‘Dialogo con il territorio’ in Catona. Organized by Comitato 1754, the event is intended to facilitate direct dialogue between the candidate and citizens regarding local priorities. 

Competing for the seat are center-right candidate Fabio Roscioli, endorsed by Noi Moderati as a candidate of stability, and center-left candidate Frank Benedetto, who has focused on school safety and infrastructure.
