Municipal Government
The President of the municipio is directly elected by citizens. The Council of the municipio is elected every five years, with a system under which voters express a direct choice for the President or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives at least 50% of votes, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. This gives a result whereby the winning candidate may be able to claim majority support.
Last election occurred on 5 and 19 June 2016:
| Candidate | Party | Votes | % | Run-off | % | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Francesca Del Bello | PD | 25,549 | 35.71 | 33,276 | 51.69 | |
