Christian Democracy resulted narrowly ahead of the alliance between the Italian Communist Party and the Italian Socialist Party. After the election Franco Restivo, the incumbent Christian Democratic President, formed a government that included the Monarchist National Party and the Autonomist Independentist Liberal Sicilian Union, a spin-off of declined Sicilian independentists.

gollark: Interesting question. You should download their entire revision history dump and analyze it.
gollark: Also, apparently if you could transmit information faster than light that would break causality, which would be bad.
gollark: According to xkcd, keeping updated would only require 5 printers worth of throughput, which is not very much in terms of bitrate.
gollark: I mean, it's probably way more complicated, but basically you can't send information faster than light that way.
gollark: Anyway, my knowledge of this is not very detailed, but IIRC quantum entanglement means that if you observe one particle the other one collapses into another state, or something like that, and you don't control which state is picked, so you can't send any data.
