How it would end was already understood in the afternoon, when the national deputy secretary Andrea Crippa said: «It's not closed yet, but the candidate will be Paolo Truzzu».

In the evening, the official note from the League arrived to put the seal on the strength of the alliance: «As per Silvio Berlusconi's teachings» , the party «is aware that the unity of the centre-right is a value to be defended. For this reason, he will reunite the coalition in Sardinia too, with a sense of responsibility and out of love for the island, despite the dismay at the initiatives of part of the judiciary".

The reference, obviously, is to the corruption investigation in which the governor Christian Solina is under investigation, excellent among the excellent. Judicial proceedings which yesterday led to the seizure of assets worth 350 thousand euros ordered by the Cagliari Prosecutor's Office.

Therefore: the League goes to support Paolo Truzzu of Fratelli d'Italia for the race for the presidency of the Region and blames the judiciary, which carried out such a significant act against its Sardinian ally, when the tug-of-war was still underway which, passing for Sardinia, Basilicata and the tensions over the third mandate for the regional presidents were also of interest. A measure that does not excite FdI and which would pave the way for Northern League member Luca Zaia in Veneto.

And the Psd'Az? Today only deputy secretary Quirico Sanna spoke. For tomorrow the president of the party, Antonio Moro, has convened the national council: the call to the assembly had been sent before the news of the investigation exploded. On the agenda is the report by Secretary Solinas and the analysis of the political situation. Which has changed compared to yesterday. The Sardinians are unlikely to leave the center-right. Tourism councilor Gianni Chessa certainly won't abandon him, announcing on Facebook: "I will be a centre-right candidate."

Even Renato Soru - with whom a rapprochement was not excluded in the event of a national split - distanced himself from the four Moors.
