Originally scheduled to take place on 31 May 2020, it was delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic in Italy[1][2] and was part of a round of multiple regional elections in Italy (7 regions out of 20).
Luca Zaia, the second-term incumbent president and leading member of the League, was re-elected by a record 76.8% of the vote, the highest tally for a regional President in Italy.
The runner-up, Arturo Lorenzoni, backed mainly by the Democratic Party, won 15.7% of the vote.
The president elect is the candidate winning a plurality of votes.
The council seats are distributed according to proportional representation, with a majority bonus system assigning 60% of the 50 seats to the lists running with the candidate winning more than 40% of the votes.
