Ergebnis des Referendums über das italienische Justizsystem 2026, aufgeteilt nach Provinzen

Why was the south against?

What was the total result?

A reform on the widely corrupt judicial system voted yes by the most corrupt italian regions. Shocker.

Basically, Italian rednecks voted yes.

Why would you post this and not include a brief description of what the referendum was actually about?

TL;DR in two bullets

• The reform wanted to separate the careers of judges and prosecutors, split the High Council of the Judiciary into two bodies, and choose many of their members by lottery instead of election.

• It also created a new High Disciplinary Court to discipline magistrates, taking this power away from the existing council, which critics saw as a way to weaken judicial independence and supporters saw as cleaning up a politicised system.
