Well they did elect one and installed him a few days ago, and he's a former Communist who supported the Soviets crushing the Hungarian Revolution. Interesting.

Does the President of Italy have any real power? I heard he does have the power to decide things such as if there should be a recount and mediate Constitutional crises, but that's about it.

In Italy the pm can issue edicts that are sort of like laws but only valid  for three months ... which the president can veto. Berlusconi talked about changing the recount procedures for three months by edict ... but the president made it clear that he'd veto any such thing.

Victoria's is coming up soon, it'll be my first. I'm certain i'll preference the local (ALP) member, the deputy premier John Thwaites, over the Lib, but I'm not sure who'll get my first preferance. Depends on the quality of candidates the dems and greens put up I suppose.

As for Ireland 2007...
1) No. We use PR-STV.
2) No. At least six, probably seven, will hold seats after the election unless something spectacular happens.
3) Yes, 166 seats iirc in the Irish Dail
4) http://www.electionsireland.org/results/general/index.cfm
5) Don't Know.

Serbia - vital election for all of Europe
Mauritania - might be the first free election in their entire history...we shall see
Bangladesh - might very well lead to civil war or a military coup
Gambia - not going to be a free election IIRC...

Well, you don't get much more vital than Peace or War. Wink And that is what it comes down to - if the Radicals gain power, Kosovo and Bosnia are going to explode.

I've heard it suggested that Canada may have a federal Election this year, to give George W. Harper a majority government. Has there been any news on this lately?

An old post now, but I'll respond. Harper is unlikely to win a majority government (and may lose his minority) if he calls an election. Therefore, he's unlikely to do so. On the other hand, neither the Liberals or the Bloc are doing well enough right now to want to force an election. (The NDP is doing poorly as well, but I can't see them thinking they can get away with propping up the Conservatives. They'd just lose out further to the Liberals and Greens.) If an election does happen soon, it will likely come as a surprise to everyone, though it also depends on what the Conservatives are willing to try in their budget.

March 7, The Netherlands Provincial parliaments

This is relevant for national politics, since the members of the provincial parliaments will vote for the Senate/First Chamber next May.

In the polls it is not clear if the new government coalition of CDA, PvdA and ChristenUnie will have a majority in the Senate, which has not happened since WWII. The Senate has a veto right on all bills.
