European elections: 6-9 June 2024
In Italy, elections are held on 8 and 9 June 2024 and there are five constituencies for the European elections. Italy has 76 seats available. Veneto is in the North-East constituency together with Friuli Venezia Giulia, Trentino Alto Adige and Emilia Romagna. The last European elections had a high turnout and saw a reversal of the previous elections in 2009 and 2014.The increase in attendance was driven by an increase in youth participation. The increase was from 30 to 44 % of young people aged 16-18 to 25 and 25 to 39. The Italian turnout in the 2019 European elections was 54.50 %.
The European elections of 2024 will involve intense debate on a wide range of issues, including the economy, immigration, the environment and security. Addressing the many challenges we face is not an easy task, and voting is how you can influence the direction you take. Candidates and political parties present proposals and programmes to address these challenges effectively and ensure the progress and well-being of the European Union as a whole.
The 2024 European elections represent a significant moment for the European Union and its citizens. Solid electoral participation and emerging political trends help to define the future of the European Union and the role of the European Parliament in the coming years.
