On a business trip, I spent time in Milan, Turin, and northern Italy into the foothills of the Alps.

Incredible sights and food!

On a Sat night, my host and I had dinner in a small sidewalk cafe in downtown Turin and then walked by THE church with Christ’s Shroud.

Exit poll shows the right wins.

In both the lower and upper chamber.

Fratelli di Italia the biggest party. Melloni will surely be PM. Time for EU to start using its “tools”.

Excellent news that the right wing is winning.

Finally, Italy has a chance to rid itself of the left wing fascism and socialism they have been suffering under since the far left Mussolini seized power in the 1930s.

Commies still run the cities and the trade unions.

Italy general election 2022: exit poll shows victory for far-right – live

[lewislynn]

Sounds familiar.

[JBW1949]

Italian polls are closed now.....

[MinorityRepublican]

Excellent news that the right wing is winning.

We need to change the vocabulary. How about freedom coalition is winning? Or free market bloc? Media is making them sound like extremist when they use the term "far right wing".

I only hope she has the nerve to stand up and to denounce this NATO Ukrainian adventure. She’s the only possible sense of reason left who might be able to slow this rush to escalate down.

WSJ reports:

Italy elected a right-wing alliance led by Giorgia Meloni, according to an exit poll, as the country faces the fallout of Europe’s economic war with Russia.
