The European elections in Italy 2019 took place on May 26th as part of the EU- wide European elections 2019 .

In Italy there were initially 73 seats in the European Parliament , but 76 seats were elected. Three elected officials from Italy will move into the European Parliament after the UK has left the EU .

The threshold for parties was 4%.

Electoral system

The five constituencies of Italy

Since 2009, the election has been based on proportional representation in five constituencies :

Article 2 of the “Law on the Election of Members of the European Parliament” in conjunction with the “Decree of April 1, 2009” specifies a fixed number of seats for these electoral districts.

However, due to the two-stage allocation of seats in accordance with Articles 21 and 22, these figures are not adhered to. In a first step, the so-called upper allocation , the nationwide party votes are added together. With the help of the Hare-Niemeyer procedure with rounded Hare quota , the total number of seats on a state list is determined. In the so-called sub - allotments for each party, the seats to which a party is entitled are allocated to the constituencies using the same procedure. Accordingly, the number of seats in the districts depends on the number of valid votes in the respective districts.

Parties that have not yet had a seat in the European Parliament have to collect 30,000 support signatures. According to Article 12 of the Italian electoral law for European elections, minority parties could join a national party.

Furthermore, according to Article 22, a minority party was guaranteed a seat, provided that its strongest candidate could garner at least 50,000 votes.
