To ensure more proportionality, remained votes and seats were transferred at regional level and calculated at-large. Results The Christian Democracy party, which had been the leading political force in the region for twenty years, and the Communist Party lost half million votes each while the Lombard League, a new autonomist party led by Umberto Bossi, obtained a resounding victory, entering the Regional Council with 15 councillors, along with one for the Lombard Alliance, and becoming the second largest party in the region. Since that point the Lombard League became a stable political force in Lombardy. After the election a cabinet led by the incumbent president Giuseppe Giovenzana was formed but, after the Tangentopoli crisis, it was replaced by a succession of governments which included both Lombard League and the former communist PDS. +6 May 1990 Lombard regional election resultscenter|300x300pxPartyVotes%Seats+/−Christian Democracy1,784,63428.5625-6Lombard League1,183,49318.9415+15Italian Communist Party1,172,05918.7615-7Italian Socialist Party892,99814.2912±0Green List213,5293.422±0Italian Republican Party160,9852.582-2Italian Social Movement158,6142.542-2Pensioners' Party114,0161.821+1Rainbow Greens113,8241.821NewItalian Democratic Socialist Party103,1881.651-1Italian Liberal Party88,3081.411±0Lombard Alliance76,5161.221NewProletarian Democracy73,4511.181-1Antiprohibitionists on Drugs62,3561.001NewHunting Fishing Environment18,8340.300NewEcological List14,7740.240NewItalian Southerns' List11,1990.180NewItalian National Hunting Movement 5,2000.080NewTotal valid votes6,247,978100.0080Blank votes188,011Invalid votes (blank included)372,326Total6,620,304Registered voters & turnout7,258,35491.21Source: Ministry of the Interior Popular vote (party) #ddd 500px 350px DC Christian Democracy (Italy) 28.56 LN Lega Nord 18.94 PCI Italian Communist Party 18.76 PSI Italian Socialist Party 14.29 LV Federation of the Greens 3.42 PRI Italian Republican Party 2.58 MSI Italian Social Movement 2.54 Others Other 10.91Seats #ddd 500px 350px DC Christian Democracy (Italy) 31.25 LN Lega Nord 18.75 PCI Italian Communist Party 18.75 PSI Italian Socialist Party 15.00 LV Federation of the Greens 2.50 PRI Italian Republican Party 2.50 MSI Italian Social Movement 2.50 Others Other 8.75 Seats by province Province DC Lega PCI PSI LV+VA MSI PRI PP Others Total Milan 9 5 8 6 3 1 2 1 5 40 Brescia 3 2 1 1 - 1 - - - 8 Bergamo 3 2 1 1 - - - - - 7 Como 3 2 1 1 - - - - - 7 Varese 2 2 1 1 - - - - - 6 Pavia 2 1 1 1 - - - - - 5 Mantua 1 - 1 1 - - - - - 3 Cremona 1 1 1 - - - - - - 3 Sondrio 1 - - - - - - - - 1Total 25 15 15 12 3 2 2 1 5 80 Category:1990 elections in Italy Category:Regional elections in Lombardy
