Analysis

Fico received nearly two thirds of the vote in the Metropolitan City of Naples, which contains more than half of the region’s population. The centre right coalition improved its result compared to the 2020 election, when parties on the left received almost eighty percent of the vote, but the centre left coalition still retained a three fifths majority.

Cirielli performed best in the northern part of Campania, reducing the margin in Caserta, where he trailed by ten point five percentage points, and in Benevento, where he trailed by eight points. Among the region’s twenty five municipalities with more than forty thousand inhabitants, Fico won in all except one. Cirielli obtained a plurality only in Cava de' Tirreni.
