Biography

edit

De Paoli was elected Senator for the first time in 1992, among the ranks of the Lombard Alpine League, and re-confirmed in the 1994 general election too. In 1996, he was a candidate with the League for Autonomy – Lombard Alliance, but he failed in his bid to be elected.[citation needed]

In the 1999 election, he was a candidate for the European Parliament for the Pensioners' Party. In 2001, he was elected to the Senate again and held office until 2006.[citation needed]

On the occasion of the 2006 general election, he signed a pact with The Union, a political coalition led by Romano Prodi. De Paoli failed to be elected to the Senate, but his party was decisive for the electoral victory of the coalition, so he was appointed Undersecretary for Sport in the second Prodi government.[1]
