1999 Sardinian regional election Turnout 66.3% ( 8.0%)
The Sardinian regional election of 1999 took place on 13 and 27 June 1999.
The centre-right coalition led by Mauro Pili won the election but was short of a clear majority; Pili, who was appointed President of the Region was not able to form a majority and was soon replaced by the defeated candidate, Gian Mario Selis , who was not able to win the confidence vote of the Regional Council himself. The former President Mario Floris was asked to form a government avoiding a new regional election.
