Giorgia Meloni set to become Italy's most right-wing leader since WWII - DW News.
Italians have begun casting their ballots in a vote that's expected to bring seismic change. Far-right candidate Giorgia Meloni is forecast to top the poll, and become Italy's most right-wing leader since World War Two, and its first female prime minister.
Polling stations opened this morning - and voting will continue until about 11 pm local time. Italian politics have a reputation for instability, with 73 governments in the last 76 years. If Meloni wins, the European Union's third largest economy would be in the hands of a euroskeptic nationalist government.
