Overview

• Maria Rosaria Boccia confirmed she will run on Stefano Bandecchi’s Dimensione Bandecchi list, announcing the decision at a Naples pizzeria event.
• Reports indicate she will not be the capolista, with Bandecchi celebrating the agreement and publicly backing her role on the list.
• Gennaro Sangiuliano has not formalized a candidacy but is considering leading Fratelli d’Italia’s list in Campania.
• Usigrai criticized Sangiuliano’s potential return to politics from a Rai post, urging him to deny the bid or take leave pending a decision.
• Boccia was central to the case that precipitated Sangiuliano’s resignation last year and is under investigation on several counts, while probes into him for peculato and revelation of official secrets were archived; the vote is scheduled for November 23–24.
