The aim of this paper is to analyse how the Italian political representation could change if just the population with the right to vote would be considered by the election rules. More specifically, we evaluate the impact of non-European foreigners, without the right to vote, on the political representation at the local level. The results show that non-EU citizens play a significant role in defining the elective procedures for more than 1,300 municipalities directly involved in the forthcoming elections.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyse how the Italian political representation could change if just the population with the right to vote would be considered by the election rules. More specifically, we evaluate the impact of non-European foreigners, without the right to vote, on the political representation at the local level. The results show that non-EU citizens play a significant role in defining the elective procedures for more than 1,300 municipalities directly involved in the forthcoming elections.
