This distinction between far right and hard right has come up a lot here recently and seems significant and important to some posters. But to me, and I suspect most others, the two terms are interchangeable, and I can’t even ever remember what the difference is supposed to be. Personally, I would describe "far-" to indicate those who use direct action instead of participating within the democratic and legal framework. So I would class XR as "far-green". But that still leaves a bit of a grey area with parties like the BNP (or indeed their left wing equivalents) who do/did take electoral politics fairly seriously.

Campania 1 is the only Chamber of Deputies constituency where the FdI-FI-Lega alliance did not top the poll (M5S did, surprisingly). Technically speaking, the right only won Aosta Valley in the Senate.

This distinction between far-right and hard-right has come up a lot here recently and seems significant and important to some posters. But to me, and I suspect most others, the two terms are interchangeable, and I can’t even ever remember what the difference is supposed to be. The difference matters a lot to me because they are often diametrically opposite to each other. Hard Right in economic terms if Thatcherite in UK terms, Far Right is often to the left of the current Labour party, more in tune with Momentum. Hard Right supports free enterprise, and far right supports state direction of the economy. In social terms, the Hard Right is socially conservative, which in practice means they object to every change but never want to reverse them. The far-right wants radical social change, much but by no means all of it to reverse changes The hard right accept democratic norms, probably more so than any other group as they reject direct action, protests, boycotts, all that sort of thing, as being bad-mannered. The far-right reject democratic norms Racial supremacism is the thing of the far right. Cultural supremacism is the thing of the hard right. They are not the same thing. Irredentism is of the far right, not the hard right The Liberal Democrats of Russia are far right The Liberal Democrats of Japan are Hard right Pretty much the difference between me (hard right) and my brother (far right)

Former FI driver Fittipaldi (FDI-FI-Lega joint list) wasn't elected in South America Senatorial constituency. The only seat goes to current MP Mario Alejandro Borghese of Italians Abroad Movement.

I believe that the allocation is done region by region considering only coalitions and lists above threshold at national level. First they distribute seats to coalitions and lists not in coalitions. Then the total assigned to a coalition is divided between lists of said coalition. On the House, on the other hand, the seats are distributed based on national shares among the coalitions and lists above threshold, then within each coalition among the coalitioned lists. Then through a weird system I refuse to justify/understand/explain, seats won by each party are allocated to circumscription and from circumscription to plurinominal constituencies. Each circumscription and plurinominal constituency have an exact total number of seats, there is a weird system that makes the total match the national total within each area. Lists between 1 and 2.99% are counted for the coalition totals. Lists below 1% are not considered. Yes, it doesn't make sense. But we don't pretend this system makes any sense.

Big parties are favored in the Senate system because even if you are over 3%, it is difficult to get a seat in small regions because there are not many seats in first place to distribute.

CAMERA Italians abroad: 1 to Italians Abroad Movement, 1 PD elected so far. Other 3 constituencies are likely to split 1 PD, 1 Right each. I was wrong because I forgot Europe had 3 seats. So 1 PD, 1 Right, 1 M5S. Africa-Asia-Oceania have only 1 seat and it will go PD. North America is 1-1.

Their vote share is 1/3 of the Centre Right and Centre Left lists. If it's over - even one vote over - 1/3 of the leading list then that seat distribution is correct under Ste Lague. (With D'Hondt you'd need half and with Hare all it takes is a retard of less than 33.3 points, but then neither system is remotely suited to constituencies this small. Of course there are also a number of ad hoc variants in existence; I'm too lazy to look up what Italy uses.)

Their vote share is 1/3 of the Centre Right and Centre Left lists. I just re-read everything. We don't use de Hondt. We use the quotients methods total number of votes in Europe: 567,493 567493 divided by the number of seats (3): 189,164.3333 Number of votes of PD divided by 189,164.3333=0.94 Number of votes of Right divided by 189,164.3333=0.85 Number of votes of M5S divided by 189,164.3333=0.34 So nobody have full seat (all below 1)...so we get the highest fractions......

But both the right and PD got more then double the votes of M5S it is a system that doesn't make any sense for a constituency of 3 with no thresholds....but those writing electoral lows in Italy are not deep thinkers. The previous one was called "Porcellum". In your previous Emilia example works better because it is 1.7, 1.48, 0.43, 0.36. So 1 and 1 automatic allocations + the 0.7 and 0.48 from the top 2 coalitions.
