I love how extremely inaccurate those ideology boxes are though, lol.

Just a warning of sorts, but early projections are sometimes even worse than exit polls! No, nothing is worse than exit polls. Apart opinion polls.

On those seat projections, and if 5 Star can be taken at their word that they would not agree any coalition, the only option is a grand coalition - but that sounds improbable. Can't imagine PDs getting together with Lega. La Stampa tomorrow has a headline saying Italy is ungovernable.

Rai and Mediaset first projections (low coverage, 5-7%)
PD a bit better but still below 20% (Mediaset's projection have them just above it)
Lega a bit worse but still above FI

There are separate male and female lines? Popular Northern Italian saying "Africa begins south of Rome". Not any more. It has moved a lot to the north.

By the way: Why have the Salvini-LN and FdI not merged? Is Mrs.Meloni too popular or the separatism or the tradition too strong?

Counting levels vary up and down the land so caution is needed, but from the Senate figures so far we can be sure of one thing: MS5 has absolutely crushed it in the South.

No constituencies called yet, nearly 5 hours after polls closed...

MidRight is so far behind in the South and FI won't win more FPTP-seats than LN in the North (or were these distributed so inequally in favour of FI? I don't think so), what means, that LN will be the strongest faction (clearer ahead than in 1994).

We're at last starting to get FPTP results in now. The 5-star Movement have taken the Aosta Valley lower house seat by 170 votes. A prominent member of that same party, Roberto Fico, has taken Naples Fuorigrotta with 57.6% of the vote. They've also pretty easily won Palermo Settecannoni, whilst the Lega have won Montebelluna and Verona in the Veneto.
A Senate seat in Trentino-South Tyrol appears to have gone to the centre-left bloc (presumably to the SVP).
