The center-right candidates for mayor of Rome, Enrico Michetti, and of the center left, Roberto Gualtieri, voted this morning in their respective polling stations for the capital’s ballot. Both voted in the Monteverde area.
Michetti went to the polling station set up in via Giovanni De Calvi, having himself immortalized as he inserted the ballot into the ballot box, but did not release any declaration out of respect for electoral silence. Gualtieri voted, a little later, at the Federico Caffè institute in via Fonteiana: some selfies in front of the polling station, but – also in this case – no declaration.

Also Carlo Calenda, leader of the action defeated in the last electoral round, voted at his seat of reference in via del Lavatore. Calenda on Twitter shows the moment of the vote and comments: “With a sad air but I did my duty”.
“In democracy you vote. Happy vote to everyone!”. He had wished president of the Lazio Region this morning Nicola Zingaretti, in a post on Facebook with an attached image in which he is immortalized inserting the ballot into the urn from the polling station in Rome.
