[Italy](https://electionsarchive.com/it.md) / [Veneto](https://electionsarchive.com/it/veneto.md) / [Este](https://electionsarchive.com/it/veneto/este.md), May 28, 2006

Giancarlo Piva led with 38.9% of the vote, 3.6 points ahead of Gianfranco Fornasiero.

> 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.
