Overview

• Polling stations open Sunday from 7:00 to 23:00 and Monday from 7:00 to 15:00 across Calabria.
• Centre-right incumbent Roberto Occhiuto seeks a new term despite a July resignation tied to a corruption inquiry, facing M5S euro-MEP Pasquale Tridico backed by a broad centre-left alliance.
• Coverage highlights a risk of very low participation, with warnings that turnout could slip below 40% after declines seen in other regional votes.
• Calabria’s ballot rules bar split-ticket voting and allow up to two preference votes within a chosen list, which must be for candidates of different sex.
• The campaign closed with a SkyTg24 face-off over jobs, health care, autonomy and the Stretto bridge, plus rallies where Giuseppe Conte joined Tridico and Elly Schlein appeared by video.
