Giorgia Meloni is frontrunner to be Italy's new prime minister but the process to confirm the country's next leader could take several weeks - here's how it works.
In fact, after the official results are confirmed, both Houses of Parliament, the Chamber of Deputies and Senate, will need to elect the presidents of each house and the heads of coalitions/parties.The nominees will then hold consultations with President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella, who will assess whether there is a majority supporting a new government in parliament.There isn't a precise duration for this but analysts think it could last at least until mid-October.
The president will only then officially appoint the new prime minister and the respective ministers. It's hard to predict exactly when this will happen but analysts think it could be in the second half of October.Will Giorgia Meloni be the new PM? If this happens, Ms Meloni will likely be proposed as prime minister by her coalition and President Mattarella will likely accept it.However, as in previous elections, parties in the winning coalition could also start diverging on some issues.
