The 2021 Calabrian regional election took place in Calabria, Italy, on 3 and 4 October 2021, following the dissolution of the regional parliament after the death of regional president Jole Santelli. It was originally scheduled to take place on 14 February 2021, then on 11 April 2021, and was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy.[1][2]

Electoral system

Even if a district list is linked to a regional list that exceeds 8% of the vote, the district list must obtain at least 4% of the vote in the whole region in order to elect their own representatives. To ensure governance, the candidate who receives the most votes wins a majority bonus of 55% of the seats.[3]
