Democratic Party (PD) candidate for
Campania governor, Vincenzo De Luca, is one of 17 candidates the
parliamentary anti-Mafia commission deems unfit to stand in May
31 regional elections due to prior convictions or pending
probes. Four of the "unpresentables" are running in Puglia and
the rest in Campania. De Luca was convicted in January of abuse
of office in connection with an incinerator project while he was
mayor of the city of Salerno, and handed a suspended sentence of
a year in prison plus a one-year ban from holding public office.
