(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 27 - The centre-left coalition won seven
of the 13 provincial capitals that went to runoffs on Sunday in
an important round of local elections, prevailing in Verona,
Parma, Piacenza, Cuneo, Catanzaro, Alessandria and Monza.
In Verona, the new mayor is former AS Roma midfielder Damiano
Tommasi.
The centre right paid the price for not presenting a united
front in all of the contests and won four of the provincial
capitals, Frosinone, Lucca, Gorizia and Barletta, while two went
to independent civic lists - Como and Viterbo.
The turnout was just 42.16%, down from 54.11% in the first
round. (ANSA).
