The 2023 Lazio regional election took place on 12 and 13 February 2023. It was held concurrently with the 2023 Lombard regional election, as decided by the Italian government on 9 December 2022.[1] On 12 October 2022, the president of Lazio Nicola Zingaretti decided to step down, having been elected to the national parliament.[2]

The election saw the centre-right coalition win with a majority of the popular vote, gaining a 11-seat majority and taking control of the Regional Council of Lazio for the first time since the 2010 Lazio regional election.

Electoral system

[edit]

The Regional Council of Lazio is elected with a mixed system: 39 councilmembers are chosen with a form of proportional representation using a largest remainder method with open lists, while 11 councilmembers are elected with a plurality-at-large voting system with closed lists. One seat is for the elected president.[3]
