According to what has been learned from the main regional press bodies, it would seem that the Sardinian Democratic Party has decided to renounce, in the present circumstance, definitively, and perhaps not otherwise questionably, the so-called "primaries" for the sole purpose of favoring the compactness of the centre-left alliance (M5s, Progressives and Independentists), but in reality, it would seem, with the 5 Star Movement which, from the beginning, had put its unquestionable veto on it.
In short, although it has been specified that the instrument of the primaries continues to represent, "in line with what is written in the statute, the preferred method for choosing the candidacy for president of the Region", however, since such a criterion of choice could have compromised the unity and the stability of the alliance, it was decided to, so to speak, "suspend" its operations, even if only temporarily.
Whether it was an appropriate choice will only be determined by the polls, and we certainly understand the need for pooling of energy to avoid the phenomenon of dispersion and/or fragmentation of the vote and indirectly favor the competing coalition. The centre-left coalition, in particular, seems to want to propose itself as a complex of sensibilities, which, despite being a synthetic expression, each component, of the same (or almost) same ideological matrix (at least that seems to be the impression), however, would decline it, as made the decline, to different and competing (sometimes) subjectivity. Probably for this reason, as announced, we will proceed to draw up a list of criteria to identify the presidential candidate, among which the "ability to keep together the political forces and movements that make up the coalition" would appear to emerge, not without neglecting the "electoral weight represented by the members of the table".
Well. If everything depended on the Roundtable, there would be no question, but where would the potential center-left voters' satisfaction with the possible upstream choice be? The centre-right (but perhaps only Psd'Az and Lega?), for its part, seems to be at the starting line with the forward momentum of the outgoing president, who seems to want to propose himself again to the approval of the Sardinian people in the name of continuity. There seems to be no mention of primaries, which, in all likelihood, would not be bad within a coalition left "orphaned" by President Silvio Berlusconi, as a very strong expression of compactness and success of an unprecedented alliance of his ingenious creation.
