The Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol provincial elections of 2008 took place on 26 October 2008 in South Tyrol and on 9 November in the Trentino. It was the first time since 1946 that elections were not held on the same day.
The Trentino election was postponed as the Union of Christian and Centre Democrats' list (which would have supported Lorenzo Dellai) was excluded from the race due to lack of signatures.http://trentinocorrierealpi.repubblica.it/dettaglio/Le-elezioni-provinciali-rinviate-al-9-novembre/1528926 Le elezioni provinciali rinviate al 9 novembre Trentino 2008-10-17 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20081021120226/http://trentinocorrierealpi.repubblica.it/dettaglio/Le-elezioni-provinciali-rinviate-al-9-novembre/1528926 2008-10-21 http://trentinocorrierealpi.repubblica.it/dettaglio/Elezioni-a-Trento-si-votera-il-9-novembre/1529525 Elezioni a Trentosi votera il 9 novembre - Cronaca - Trentino Corrier… https://archive.today/20120714223003/http://trentinocorrierealpi.repubblica.it/dettaglio/Elezioni-a-Trento-si-votera-il-9-novembre/1529525 14 July 2012 dead

The Democratic Party (PD) became the largest party in the Province, followed by Union for Trentino (UpT) and Lega Nord Trentino (LNT). The People of Freedom (PdL) lost many votes to LNT, UPT and the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party (PATT).
