A recent YouTrend poll for SkyTg24 indicates that the Italian center-right coalition risks losing ground against the center-left without the inclusion of Futuro Nazionale, led by Roberto Vannacci. The poll shows that FDI (Fratelli d'Italia) has dropped below 27%, while Vannacci’s party gains momentum, reaching 6.4% and surpassing the League. Most center-right voters oppose early elections, preferring the natural end of the legislature in autumn, despite speculation about Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni possibly calling elections earlier. Overall, support for major parties remains relatively stable, though FDI loses nearly a point in two weeks, and smaller parties like Forza Italia and the League see slight declines. The center-left holds a narrow lead over the government coalition, which includes FDI, Forza Italia, the League, and Noi Moderati. Meanwhile, voter uncertainty rises, with 33.5% undecided or abstaining.

Roberto Vannacci, leader of the Italian political movement Futuro Nazionale, responds to Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's comments that his group wants to 'only destroy.'
