1995 Molise regional election
The Molise regional election of 1995 took place on 23 April 1995.
Marcello Veneziale was elected President of the Region, defeating Quintino Pallante by a narrow margin.
For the first time the President of the Region was directly elected by the people, although the election was not yet binding and the President-elect could have been replaced during the term. This is precisely what happened in 1998, when a centrist majority ousted Veneziale and replaced him with Michele Iorio. In 1999 Iorio switched again party, this time to Forza Italia, and formed a centre-right government, but was soon replaced by a centre-left majority, which reinstated Veneziale.
