[Italy](https://electionsarchive.com/it.md) / [Sicilia](https://electionsarchive.com/it/sicilia.md) / [Naro](https://electionsarchive.com/it/sicilia/naro.md), November 30, 1997

Giuseppe Morello led with 32.18% of the vote, 0.26 points ahead of Giuseppe Cumbo.

> 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.
