The anti-establishment 5-Star
Movement (M5S) on Wednesday extended the deadline for presenting
candidatures for the March 4 general election from noon to 17:00
after their portal crashed because of huge demand.
The M5s said its so-called 'parlamentarie' candidacy process
was "a success".
It said "very many people are taking part in this
demonstration of democracy by the M5S, the only political force
that opens up to persons of good will and has them voted for by
its members and not by party chiefs".
