[Italy](https://electionsarchive.com/it.md) / [Toscana](https://electionsarchive.com/it/toscana.md) / [Pisa](https://electionsarchive.com/it/toscana/pisa.md), November 29, 1998

Paolo Fontanelli led with 48.3% of the vote, 13.9 points ahead of Carlo Alberto Dringoli.

> 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.
