Summary
The 2005 Basilicata regional election took place on 17–18 April 2005. The election was for all 30 seats of the Regional Council of Basilicata and the president of Basilicata, who automatically became a member of the council alongside two other seats, plus that of the second-placed candidate. It was the third-last election of the 2005 Italian regional elections. Due to some legal issues with the presentation of the list of Social Alternative, Basilicata did not vote along with the other Italian regions in on 3–4 April 2005 regional elections but a couple of weeks later instead. The victory of The Union coalition, which obtained more than two thirds of the vote, was the largest in Italy and Vito De Filippo of Democracy is Freedom – The Daisy, the youngest president of Basilicata and the most voted president of a region in percentage terms, was elected president by a landslide. As part of what became a over 20-year rule of the centre-left coalition, the results in Basilicata reflected their comparison as the political equivalent of the left-wing Emilia-Romagna region in Southern Italy.[1][2][3]
