1953 Italian general election in Veneto
The Italian general election of 1953 took place on 7 June 1953.
Christian Democracy lost some ground, but still gained a convincing 53.4% of the vote. The Italian Socialist Party and the Italian Communist Party ran separate lists, gaining 14.6 and 14.2% of the vote. Veneto was thus one of the few regions of Italy where the Socialists were stronger than the PCI, even without counting the PSDI. The PSI got its best results in the provinces of Venice, Rovigo and Verona, but not in the traditional Socialist stronghold of Belluno, where it was passed by the PSDI. The PCI was stronger in Rovigo and Venice.Results
