(ANSA) - Rome, June 27 - Democratic Party (PD) deputy chief Lorenzo Guerini said Monday the government's Italicum electoral law can be debated, but the Spanish general election "should provide food for thought".

"(Our) as yet untested electoral law guarantees representation and governability," said Guerini. "You don't change an electoral law over one round of local elections," he added.
