General elections were held in Italy on 22 October 1865, with a second round of voting on 29 October.〔Nohlen, D & Stöver, P (2010) ''Elections in Europe: A data handbook'', p1047 ISBN 978-3-8329-5609-7〕 It was the second one in the history of Italy. ==The race== The Historical Right was led by the former Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, Alfonso Ferrero La Marmora, a long-time general who fought during the Italian unification. On the other hand, the bloc of the Historical Left was led by Urbano Rattazzi, a liberal politician who was between the founders of the Italian left-wing parliamentary group. In opposition to the two main blocs there were a third party known as The Extreme, a far-left coalition, under the leadership of Agostino Bertani, an Italian revolutionary and a key figure of the Unification. On 22 and 29 October, only 504,263 men of a total population of around 23 million were entitled to vote.〔Nohlen & Stöver, p1049〕 Right-wing candidates emerged as the largest bloc in Parliament with around 41% of the 443 seats.〔Nohlen & Stöver, p1082〕 They were largely aristocrats representing rentiers from the north of the country, and held moderate political views including loyalty to the crown and low government spending;〔Nohlen & Stöver, p1028〕 the general La Marmora was appointed Prime Minister by the king Victor Emmanuel II. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Italian general election, 1865」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
