TORONTO – ‘Comites’ elections in Toronto, there are the results: of the 12 seats available, 6 go to the list of the outgoing president Michela Di Marco, “Uniti per la Comunità 2021”, the remaining 6 are equally divided between the other two lists: “l’Italia che ci lega” and the civic list “Italiani in Canada”. In fact, therefore, there is parity between the winning list and the other two who with their elected representatives (3 + 3) reach the same number (6) as the representatives of the first list.
The voting operations for the election of the new representatives of the ‘Comites’ (the Committees of Italians Abroad) in Toronto ended on December 3: 1,134 people registered to vote, but then they actually sent the envelope to the Consulate General of Italy, with their vote, 874 people. Of the 874 parcels received, only 780 were scrutinized because the remaining 94 lacked all the required documents. Of the 780 ballots scrutinized, 732 were valid.
At the end of the count, the Consulate proclaimed the elected members. Let’s see them.
Uniti per la Comunità 2021: Michela Di Marco 260 votes, Daniela Sanzone 167, Joseph Cafiso 155, Mattia Bello 134, Diana Alezandra Di Mauro 92, Roberto Bandiera 83.

The ‘Comites’ are all over the world and they represent the Italian Community, promoting its interests and preserving the historical memory of Italian emigration.
