Talk:Italian general election, 2001
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Can anyone refer me to an online source of maps showing the electoral circumscription boundaries? Adam 03:43, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- Italy provides a division in 27 "circumscriptions" (circoscrizioni); each circumscription is then divided in a number of electoral costituencies (collegi), which are proportional to the population (except the circumscription of Aosta Valley, which is composed by just one costituency too). If you refer to the circumscriptions, you may find them here. On the link I passed you, Aosta Valley is not indicated, but what I told above is explicited on the electoral law. You will discover that each circumscription is made up by a number of provinces; you should so look for a map of the Italian provinces, and you may find some in Wikimedia Commons, such as the one in the right. The provinces have changed after 2001 (some other ones, all in Sardinia, have added in 2005), but they should not have affected the composition of provinces in the country, because the whole Sardinia is one only circumscription. I hope this could be helpful, anyhow feel free to ask me whatever you could find useful about your needings. Ciao. --Angelo 11:59, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
Yes, thanks for that. What I want is maps of the collegi within each circonscizione. Adam
- I made a search on the Internet, but I did not find any map with the boundaries, at least not for the whole Italy, even if there are for some regions of the country (such as this for Basilicata). If you need just to know the composition of all the "collegi elettorali" (electoral districts, P.S.: good sentence for a search by Google ;-), you could instead look at the links described on the article. --Angelo 17:14, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
No I don't think they are online anywhere, which is surprising. If you see them in print anywhere, please scan them for me :) Grazie. Adam 02:20, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
