The absolute majority in the Chamber of Deputies, more important of the two houses of parliament, demonstrated the greatily increased strength of Mr, De Gasperi's party. In 1946, the Christian Democrats won only 35.2 per cent of the vote.

At the same time, the Communist Front showed signs of crumbling under the impact of Mr. De Gasperi’s victory. A group of six leftwing Socialist leaders presented leftwing Socialist Chief Pietro Nenni with a demand their party quit the leftist alliance.
