Pd, shot the scene in Venice: withdraw to Gabriella Chiellino, the candidate for mayor of the dem

VENICE - Shot the scene a few hours after the formalization of the race of Gabriella Chiellino as a candidate for mayor of Venice for the Pd and the centre-left enlarged. When everything seemed done, she declined the invitation and withdrew their availability to contend the leadership of the city on the lagoon to Luigi Brugnaro. "I thank all the members of the breakfast centre-left - has written Chiellino in a mail - that have expressed to me their support and the many who have expressed to me their self-esteem. After deep reflection I have come, however, for reasons that are strictly personal, to the decision not to take on the commitment that I required."

Pd and the centre-left, in the aftermath of arduous agreement on the civic Arturo Lorenzoni as Anti-Zaia to the regional elections at the end of may, are displaced. Gabriella Chiellino, manager, environmentalist, independent and catholic, would have been the first woman to present themselves to the electorate in order to govern Venice. The negotiations on his figure were to continue Sunday evening and all day yesterday. The agreement between Pd, socialists, Greens, communists, and the civil list had been sanctioned, and the official announcement was set for the evening. In the last minute problems have arisen such as to induce Chiellino to retire without even attend the decisive meeting.
