Voting rights reform on the rocks Giorgia Meloni's government is in turmoil

Giorgia Meloni's government in Italy is facing increasing challenges after failing to pass a controversial electoral reform in parliament. The reform aimed to allow voters more choice by introducing 'preferenze'—a system where voters could select individual candidates rather than being limited to fixed party lists. However, this proposal faced strong opposition from lawmakers who benefit from the current system. Meanwhile, Meloni has struggled with declining popularity since losing a referendum on her judicial reforms earlier this year and engaging in a public dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump. Additionally, former general Roberto Vannacci, a far-right figure, is gaining support among Italy’s right-wing electorate, further complicating Meloni’s position. With no immediate prospect of new elections, Meloni’s government appears increasingly unstable, unable to push through major reforms.
