The Mayor of Brescia is an elected politician who, along with the Brescia's City Council, is accountable for the strategic government of Brescia in Lombardy, Italy.

The current Mayor is Emilio Del Bono (PD), elected on 9–10 June 2013[1] and re-elected for a second term on 10 June 2018.[2]

Overview

According to the Italian Constitution, the Mayor of Brescia is a member of the City Council.

The Mayor is elected by the population of Brescia, who also elects the members of the City Council, the legislative body which checks the Mayor's policy guidelines and is able to enforce his resignation by a motion of no confidence. The Mayor is entitled to appoint and release the members of his executive.

Since 1994 the Mayor is elected directly by Brescia's electorate: in all mayoral elections in Italy in cities with a population higher than 15,000 voters express a direct choice for the mayor or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives at least 50% of votes, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. The election of the City Council is based on a direct choice for the candidate with a preference vote: the candidate with the majority of the preferences is elected. The number of the seats for each party is determined proportionally.
