She knew her job was tough, but maybe she didn't even imagine getting zero votes.

Valentina Antonella Carta , 40, from Silì , candidate for mayor of the "Tradition and Identity" list in Villanova Truschedu , tries to explain the zero shown in the preferences box to her and her group in an available and courteous manner.

“It was frustrating to discover, during the counting, that no one trusted us. It was to be expected since there were 3 lists and of course it was part of our plans. We are not originally from the country and this obviously had a lot of influence, even if some candidates were from neighboring countries. But this does not mean - he underlines - that our participation in this electoral round as "foreigners" demonstrates how democratic our system is by giving anyone the opportunity to compete for office even in territories where we are not resident ».
