Overview

• Polls reopen Monday from 7:00 to 15:00 with counting to follow, as three candidates vie for the presidency: Eugenio Giani (centre‑left), Alessandro Tomasi (centre‑right) and Antonella Bundu (Toscana Rossa).
• Official data show 35.7% turnout at 23:00 Sunday in Tuscany, roughly 10 points below the comparable 2020 figure, with Pistoia holding up better than Florence.
• The winner is elected in the first round at over 40% of the vote, otherwise a runoff between the top two is scheduled for 26 October under regional law.
• The race doubles as a coalition test after centre‑right wins in Marche and Calabria, with national leaders rallying in Florence to boost Tomasi and the centre‑left seeking a hold in a traditional stronghold.
• Voters can use disgiunto split‑ticket voting, the PD and Lega employ limited ‘listino bloccato’ slates, and both blocs navigate internal strains including M5S reservations and League dissent over Roberto Vannacci.
