Valdostan Union

In the 1968 regional election UV won only 16.7% of the vote (RV 5.4%), while in 1973, after the split of the social-democratic faction, the Progressive Valdostan Union (UPV), UV stopped at 11.5%, damaged both by the result of UPV (6.7%) and RV (1.6%), as well as by the success of the Popular Democrats (22.4%), born by the split from DC of the internal left.

Its leaders are Ennio Pastoret, party president, and Augusto Rollandin, President of the Region.

Augusto Rollandin was the most voted regional deputy with 13,836 preference votes, while incumbent President Luciano Caveri was only seventh with 2,770 votes (down from 7,313) and party leader Guido Césal 25th thus failing the re-election.

In 1984 Andrione was replaced by Augusto Rollandin at the head of the government, which was composed by UV, DC, DP, UPV and PRI from 1983 to 1988.
