I am voting for Onorato. But I would also vote for Fratoianni, or perhaps Ferragni

My vote goes to Alessandro Onorato. Or rather, as far as I’m concerned, the right prime minister is Alfio Marchini. I really hope he stands in the PD primaries. It’s just a stone’s throw from here to Palazzo Chigi. Two full parliamentary terms from 2027 to 2037. But Dr Marchini isn’t standing for election just yet. So let’s go with Onorato, who will be the PD’s national secretary for six years. He’ll hold both the post of Communist Party secretary and that of Prime Minister. So: the G7, the Forum, Doha. I’ll delegate security matters to Enrico Montesano; if he stands as secretary of the Democrats, I’ll vote for him 100 per cent. I’d also like to vote for Salis, but she doesn’t seem keen. She could become a minister if she wins the primaries. Fratoianni isn’t a bad choice either; if he stands, I’ll definitely vote for him.

I certainly will not be voting for Elly. 1) She speaks too fast; 2) She is correct about everything; 3) She is beautiful and I am in love with her, so I do not wish to mix my personal feelings with democratic institutions. As usual, I will be casting my vote at 19 different polling stations. Essentially, I will be fully occupied all day with petrol, motorway tolls and my contribution to the party – it will cost me a thousand euros. However, it is worthwhile if, as a reward, they offer me the artistic directorship of the Teatro Ponchielli in Verona. Rightly in the hands of the communists, even during the twenty years of Fascist rule. If he were to stand as a candidate, I would gladly vote for the mayor of Cesena as well. Dr Enzo Lattuca – the path to Palazzo Chigi is clear for him as well, should he win the farce (pardon the word) of the primaries. Back to the beginning. Here’s where I’ll be voting: Milan, 4 polling stations in various areas; Forlì, 1 polling station; Catania, 2 polling stations. See the full list on Il Foglio’s website.

Not to be disrespectful to others, but I would vote for Marco Russo, the mayor of my hometown Savona, without a second thought. I am convinced he would act as a catalyst for the entire centre-left and even the far left! That is the political sphere to which I belong. Antagonists, ‘yes to evictions’, ‘Occupy’, we support Mario Giordano as Prime Minister. Travaglio, Gomez, Scanzi, Gruber and Tomaso Montanari. Isn’t it time to take the field? Or shall we carry on making money from books, theatre shows, talk shows and illegal lap dances? Nothing’s right. Meloni because she’s from Garbatella. Renzi because he’s a graduate. Boschi because she’s gorgeous and will be the successor to Mattarella. (Even though she won’t be 50 by the end of the president’s term.) The mayor of Terni because he’s a bodybuilder (future prime minister). But who do you think is suitable, Davigo? Stand as a candidate alongside him. Vannacci won’t do. Professor Barbero is a communist too. Grillo was the prophet; Di Maio is a lecturer at the Royal College. But the right leader for the PD is Beppe Severgnini, who said after Meloni’s victory: “I suspect that universal suffrage is not entirely complete.” He’s right: rather than letting sixteen-year-olds vote in the primaries, let’s arrest the youngsters who turn up to vote in the primaries. They’re quite rightly complaining. But the trap was set specifically to deprive them of their constitutional rights. P.S. They’ll be released within 72 hours, on the charge in question. To think that Chiara Ferragni is a member of the PD: in fact, she was. But today she is a candidate to lead Lombardy in place of Fontana. A secret handover, which will take place tomorrow at 10 am at the Pirellone. Much to the bewilderment of the regional councillors who, after a moment’s dismay, unanimously vote for Chiara Ferragni as PD secretary and president of Lombardy. Many say: but Chiara Ferragni didn’t stand in the primaries. But if we vote for her en masse, she is legally obliged to heed the demands of the party members and accept the post of secretary. The office is being moved abroad at the behest of the CGIL, but not even that. The rent is cheaper.
