Remaining votes and seats were transferred at regional level, where they were divided using the Hare quota, and automatically distributed to best losers into the local lists.

The Christian Democrats obtained a plurality in Piedmont, even if the ruling leftist alliance maintained its overall majority. Conversely, even if remaining the first party in Ligury, the Communists lost this region because the local Socialists chose to change side, joining a centrist alliance with the DC and its minor allies. In Latium, where an assembly majority change, happened in 1977, had restored a centrist administration, the final ouster of the Communists from the government was confirmed by the polls.
