Municipal Government

The President of the municipio is directly elected by citizens. The Council of the municipio is elected every five years, with a system under which voters express a direct choice for the President or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives at least 50% of votes, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. This gives a result whereby the winning candidate may be able to claim majority support.

After the resignation of the incumbent President, a special election occurred on 10 June 2018:

Candidate		Party	Votes	%
	Amedeo Ciaccheri	S8[2]	17,603	54.05
	Simone Foglio	FI	8,249	25.33
	Enrico Lupardini	M5S	4,271	13.11
	Others		2,443	7.50
Total			32,566	100.00

As Mayor of Rome she held the office as Special Commissioner after the resignation of the President.

gollark: F# is much terser, allows useful expressive FP stuff, and has a javascript compiler.

gollark: C-syntax != good.

gollark: So what?

gollark: I like it *much more* than C# personally. Much terser.

gollark: How exactly is F#'s syntax worse than all of PHP?!?
