In a press conference, Lega secretary Matteo Salvini explained yesterday's vote as follows: "A reorganization phase for the movement, focusing on mayors and administrators, is essential."
At the party headquarters in via Bellerio in Milan, Salvini wanted to thank the 20 thousand party militants who are "the ground on which to build" e "If anyone has other plans... this isn't a barracks. Everyone is useful and no one is essential."
And yet: "We ran a content-based campaign, even though I wasn't able to even have a conversation with Letta. I'm sorry.
The voters' verdict is clear. The voters rewarded those who opposed it—well done! Tomorrow I've convened the Federal Council; we'll evaluate all the data."
"We started the Draghi government with the League at 23 percent, and we're ending with 9 percent. Brothers of Italy was initially well below the League's figure, now it's above. Well done Giorgia for being a good opposition, I count on the center-right to involve everyone because everyone is needed."
