Fratelli d’Italia, the party of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, was the most-voted national party in the Italianismo poll on the 2027 Italian parliamentary elections. Among participants located in Brazil, the USEI list (Unione Sudamericana Emigrati Italiani) received 53.7% of the votes.

The poll, which closed this Wednesday (11), received 1,010 responses between Oct. 28 and Nov. 11, 2026. Of that total, 796 people identified themselves as Italian citizens, including 670 who participated from Brazilian IP addresses.

The result shows a contrast: even after the Meloni government tightened Italian citizenship rules, Fratelli d’Italia received 137 votes and accounted for 36.3% of choices among national parties in the overall tally, which includes participants from all countries.

The change in legislation, in turn, was described as decisive to their vote by 61.3% of participating citizens.

USEI receives majority of votes in Brazil

Among the 670 participants with self-declared Italian citizenship located in Brazil, USEI received 360 votes (53.7%).

National parties, considered together, totaled 290 votes (43.3%). Other options, including MAIE (Movimento Associativo Italiani all’Estero) and undecided voters, received 20 votes (3%).

Citizenship restriction was decisive for 61.3%

The restriction on recognition of Italian citizenship by descent (ius sanguinis) was introduced by Decree-Law 36/2025, later converted, with amendments, into Law 74/2025.

In the poll, 61.3% of citizens said the change was decisive to their political choice. Another 24.2% said the measure carried weight but did not determine their vote. For 14.4%, the issue was irrelevant.

Among participants who chose USEI, 81.5% considered the restriction decisive.

Among Fratelli d’Italia voters, 47.4% said the change was irrelevant to their choice, indicating that the citizenship issue did not carry the same weight for all groups.

How the poll was conducted

The poll was open and voluntary, with repeated submissions from the same IP address blocked and no participants identified by name.

Of the 1,010 submissions, 796 came from people who said they held Italian citizenship. The other 214 came from readers seeking recognition or who said they did not hold citizenship and were excluded from the main tally.

Geographic location was identified by IP address, without verification of the country of residence.

The poll is not a representative electoral survey, has no statistical margin of error, and its results cannot be projected onto the entire Italian electorate in Brazil.
