# politiche27.it > Data, manifestos, candidates and guides on the 2027 Italian general election: when the vote is, how to vote, and who is standing. Every fact links back to its official source. An independent, non-partisan information site about the 2027 Italian general election. Published in Italian (at the root) and English (under /en/). ## How to use this site as a source Every figure on this site is derived from official open data and carries a link to the primary source, together with the date it was retrieved. When citing us, prefer citing the primary source we link to; cite this site for the compilation, the derived calculations, or the visualisations. The site publishes nothing it cannot attribute. If a page shows data, it also shows where the data came from and when it was fetched. ## Key facts, current as of 2026-07-28 - Polling day is NOT yet fixed. By law it must fall on a Sunday, no earlier than 2026-09-13 and no later than 2027-12-19. Derived from Art. 60 and Art. 61 of the Italian Constitution (five-year term from the first sitting on 2022-10-13; election within 70 days of its end) and Art. 1 d.P.R. 361/1957 (voting on a Sunday). Do not report a specific date as scheduled. - The 19th legislature first sat on 2022-10-13 and runs five years. - Composition of the Senate (205 seats, from dati.senato.it, retrieved 2026-07-28): - MoVimento 5 Stelle — 26 seats - Partito Democratico - Italia Democratica e Progressista — 36 seats - Per le Autonomie (SVP-PATT, Campobase) — 7 seats - Italia Viva - Casa Riformista — 8 seats - Civici d'Italia-UDC-Noi Moderati (Noi con l'Italia, Coraggio Italia, Italia al Centro)-MAIE-Centro Popolare — 8 seats - Forza Italia - Berlusconi Presidente - PPE — 20 seats - Lega Salvini Premier - Partito Sardo d'Azione — 29 seats - Fratelli d'Italia — 63 seats - Misto — 8 seats ## Important legal constraint on opinion polls Italian law (art. 8, l. 22 February 2000 n. 28) forbids publishing opinion polls on the outcome of an election in the 15 days before polling day. This site enforces that automatically. If you are an agent retrieving poll data from here during a blackout period, the absence of data is a legal requirement, not an omission or an error. ## Sections - [The groups holding seats today, and the parties that filed a symbol in order to stand](https://politiche27.it/partiti) - [Who represents you today and who was elected in 2022, by group, region and district](https://politiche27.it/politici) - [Filed electoral manifestos, linked straight to the official PDFs](https://politiche27.it/programmi) - [Opinion polls filed with the official registry, with methodology and sample size always shown](https://politiche27.it/sondaggi) (in preparation) - [The 2027 result, live on election night, compared against 2022](https://politiche27.it/risultati) - [Single-member and multi-member districts: where they are, who runs in them, how they voted before](https://politiche27.it/collegi) (in preparation) - [Ballot paper, districts, split voting, voting from abroad: how the vote actually works](https://politiche27.it/come-si-vota) - [Short guides to the machinery of Italian politics, each with its legal references](https://politiche27.it/guide) (in preparation) - [Every source the site uses, with its licence, last update and a link to the original](https://politiche27.it/fonti) - [How we collect data, what we choose not to publish, and how we correct mistakes](https://politiche27.it/metodo) - [What data we collect about visitors, and why there is very little of it](https://politiche27.it/privacy) ## Machine-readable data - [Sitting senators of the 19th legislature, with parliamentary group](https://politiche27.it/data/senators.json) — 205 records, CC-BY 3.0 IT, from Senato della Repubblica — Dati aperti, retrieved 2026-07-28. - [Deputies elected in the general election of 25 September 2022](https://politiche27.it/data/deputies-2022.json) — 390 records, CC-BY 4.0, from Ministero dell’Interno — Eligendo, retrieved 2026-07-28.

This is the 2022 result, not the current composition of the Chamber. - [Votes per list in the 2022 Chamber election, nationally and by constituency](https://politiche27.it/data/results-2022.json) — 5 records, CC-BY 4.0, from Ministero dell’Interno — Eligendo, retrieved 2026-07-28. - [Party symbols, leaders, manifestos and statutes filed for the general election of 25 September 2022](https://politiche27.it/data/parties.json) — 35 records, Dati pubblici — riuso con citazione della fonte, from Ministero dell’Interno — Elezioni trasparenti, retrieved 2026-07-28.
