Correct Answer: B. 25 September 2022

The 2022 Italian general election was a snap election held in Italy on 25 September 2022. After the fall of the Draghi government, which led to a parliamentary impasse, President Sergio Mattarella dissolved the parliament on 21 July 2022 and called for new elections. The results of the general election showed the center-right coalition led by Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy, winning an absolute majority of seats in the Italian Parliament. In a record-low voter turnout, Meloni’s party became the largest in Parliament with 26% of the vote, making her likely to become Prime Minister of Italy, as per the pre-election agreement among the center-right coalition parties.
