[Italy](https://electionsarchive.com/it.md) / [Sardegna](https://electionsarchive.com/it/sardegna.md) / [Iglesias](https://electionsarchive.com/it/sardegna/iglesias.md), November 16, 1997

Mauro Pili led with 49.0% of the vote, 18.2 points ahead of Marco Marras.

> Results are by municipality, from the Interior Ministry's open data file for this round of municipal elections; where the file reports polling sections, they are summed by municipality. No candidate won an absolute majority, so the top two went to a runoff on the second Sunday after (TUEL art. 72); the runoff date is that rule's, as the open data gives only the first round's date.
