Electoral system Since 2012, Lombardy has adopted its legislation to elect its Council, very similar to the national Tatarella Law of 1995.While the President of Lombardy and the leader of the opposition are still elected at-large, 78 councilors are elected by party lists under a form of semi-proportional representation. The winning coalition receives a jackpot of at least 45 seats, which are divided between all majority parties using the D'Hondt method, as it happens between the losing lists. Each party then distributes its seats to its provincial lists, where candidates are openly selected.According to the Law 17 February 1968, no. 108, the Regional Council is elected every five years. The election can take place on the fourth Sunday before the completion of five years period. Campaign On 1 March 2016, President Maroni announced his intention to run for re-election as president.Tangenti, Maroni: mi ricandido nel 2018, Ansa, 1 March 2016 Nonetheless, on 8 January 2018 he announced he'd not seek a re-election as president, citing personal reasons and launching former mayor of Varese Attilio Fontana as a candidate of the center-right coalition.On 1 June 2017 Giorgio Gori, the incumbent mayor of Bergamo, announced his decision to run for the presidency for the center-left coalition.Lombardia un sindaco governatore, La Repubblica, 1 June 2017On 15 January 2018, Fontana stated that the white race and the Western culture were in danger due to the migration flows from Africa.White race at risk - Fontana on migrants This created lot of protests and criticisms from the centre-left Democratic Party and also the anti-establishment Five Star Movement.Italian political candidate in race storm Parties and candidates{| class"wikitable" style"text-align:left" !colspan=2 rowspan="2"|Political party or alliance!colspan=2 rowspan="2"|Constituent lists!colspan="2"|Previous result!colspan="2" rowspan="2"|Candidate
