Biography
Castelletti has been city councillor of Brescia since 1991, when she was first elected as a member of the Italian Socialist Party. Between 1998 and 2008 she served as President of the City Council of Brescia.[1]
In 2008 she decided to run as an independent for the office of Mayor of Brescia, obtaining the 6% of the popular vote. Five years later, in 2013 she once again decided to run for the office of Mayor. After receiving again the 6% of the popular vote, on the second round she agreed to endorse the centre-left candidate Emilio Del Bono, binding her support to her appointment as deputy Mayor in case of victory.[2]
On 24 June 2013, she was appointed for the first time deputy Mayor of Brescia, being then confirmed in such position for a second term on 26 June 2018.[3] On 31 March 2023 she became acting Mayor once Emilio Del Bono left the office after being elected regional councillor.[4]
In 2023 she was candidate again for the office of Mayor of Brescia, this time with the support of the centre-left coalition. She won the election on the first round on 14–15 May 2023, becoming the first woman ever to held the office.[5] She was officially proclaimed on 20 May.[6]
