Overview
According to the Italian Constitution, the mayor of Gorizia is member of the city council.
The mayor is elected by the population of Gorizia, who also elects the members of the city council, controlling the mayor's policy guidelines and is able to enforce his resignation by a motion of no confidence. The mayor is entitled to appoint and release the members of his government.
Since 1994 the mayor is elected directly by Gorizia's electorate: in all mayoral elections in Italy in cities with a population higher than 15,000 the voters express a direct choice for the mayor or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives at least 50% of votes, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. The election of the City Council is based on a direct choice for the candidate with a preference vote: the candidate with the majority of the preferences is elected. The number of the seats for each party is determined proportionally.
Kingdom of Italy (1918–1946)
The office of Mayor of Gorizia was established in 1918 and it was elected by the City's council. In 1926, the Fascist dictatorship abolished mayors and City councils, replacing them with an authoritarian Podestà chosen by the National Fascist Party. The office of mayor was restored in 1945 during the Allied occupation.{{Cite web|url=http://www3.comune.gorizia.it/it/pinacoteca-dei-sindaci|title=Pinacoteca dei sindaci|work=Comune di Gorizia|language=it|access-date=11 April 2019|archive-date=30 March 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180330214810/http://www3.comune.gorizia.it/it/pinacoteca-dei-sindaci|url-status=dead}}
