These elections are called nearly 13 million Italians and is considered a test for the government of Silvio Berlusconi, who faces four court cases and a stagnant economy. All eyes are on Milan, where the conservative government for 20 years and some polls predict that they may lose, and Naples, where for 15 years ruled the center left and the Conservatives hope to capture it.
Turin and Bologna are the other two provincial capitals, which currently governs the left. In addition to these four provincial capitals, also voted in 26 other provincial capitals, including Trieste, Latina, Caserta, Reggio Calabria, Cagliari, Catanzaro. Berlusconi has given body and soul in this election, has called for the vote to consolidate and expand the power of the center-right and so able to carry out the reforms that aim, including the judiciary and to reduce the president's powers of the Republic.
