Gina Lollobrigida, 95, fails in election bid

(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 26 - The 95-year-old former screen diva Gina Lollobrigida has failed in her bid to gain election to the Italian parliament.
    With almost all the votes counted the once 'most beautiful women in the world' had just over 1% of the vote for a hard left ticket in a Lazio constituency.
    'La Lollo' had also failed in a 1999 bid for parliament.
    Her lawyer Antonio Ingroia said she was "perfectly lucid" despite recent court cases on her inheritance where her judgment has been called into question.
    Lollobrigida was running on the Italy Sovereign and Popular ticket of Communist Party leader Marco Rizzo in the constituency of Latina, the 'city of the Duce' south of Rome, and nearby Frosinone.
    Election winner and likely future premier Giorgia Meloni won big in the constituency. (ANSA).
