1978 Friuli-Venezia Giulia regional election

none The 1978 Friuli-Venezia Giulia regional election took place on 25 June 1978. Events Christian Democracy was by far the largest party, largely ahead of the Italian Communist Party which came second. The regionalist parties, Friuli Movement, Slovene Union and the recently formed List for Trieste (which stole many votes from the mainstream social-democratic parties), had a total score of more than 10% for the first time. After the election Antonio Comelli, the incumbent Christian Democratic president, formed a one-party government. In 1980 he managed to enlarge his cabinet to the Italian Socialist Party, the Italian Democratic Socialist Party, the Italian Republican Party and the Italian Liberal Party (Pentapartito).http://www.cjargne.it/storiaelezioni.htm Elezioni regionali e coalizioni partitiche in Friuli Venezia Giulia 2009-02-11 2023-04-03 https://web.archive.org/web/20230403235827/https://www.cjargne.it/storiaelezioni.htm dead Results 400pxParty votes votes (%) seats Christian Democracy332,68439.626 Italian Communist Party182,84521.814 Italian Socialist Party79,6569.55 List for Trieste54,6826.54 Italian Democratic Socialist Party41,9795.03 Friuli Movement38,2384.62 Italian Social Movement35,0844.22 Italian Republican Party19,7162.31 Proletarian Democracy11,1841.31 Italian Liberal Party10,5751.31 Slovene Union9,4811.11 Others0.9- Total840,126100.060Sources: Istituto Cattaneo and Cjargne Online https://web.archive.org/web/20230403235827/https://www.cjargne.it/storiaelezioni.htm 2023-04-03 References Category:Elections in Friuli-Venezia Giulia Category:1978 elections in Italy Category:June 1978 in Europe
