The 2020 Calabrian regional election took place in Calabria, Italy, on 26 January 2020.^[2] The result was the victory of the centre-right coalition and the election of Jole Santelli as President of Calabria.^[3]

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.^[4]
