fascist era ended to not be affiliated with Christian Democracy.[3][4] As mayor, Covre worked closely with other municipal leaders, among them Giorgio Lago [it] and Massimo Cacciari.[5] Covre backed autonomy for the region, but often went against his party.[6][7] This led to Covre being described as a "heretic", a nickname he accepted.[8] Covre was elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 1996, and served a single term, until 2001.
