The first-past-the-post
constituencies in the new Rosatellum 2.0 electoral law bill have
been raised from 102 to 109, according to an amendment passed
Friday. The Rosatellum, named after ruling centre-left
Democratic Party House Whip Ettore Rosato, would set up a third
of seats to be contested in first-past-the-post races and two
thirds to be assigned by proportional representation. It is
currently struggling to emerge from parliament ahead of the next
general election, expected next spring.
