The 2014 European Parliament election took place in Italy on 25 May 2014.
In Lombardy the centre-left Democratic Party was by far the largest party with 40.3% of the vote, largely distancing Forza Italia (16.9%), the Five Star Movement (15.7%) and Lega Nord (14.6%). The centre-right's tally, including also the New Centre-Right (3.7), which ran in a joint list with the Union of the Centre, and Brothers of Italy (2.8%), was 37.9%: it was the first time ever that the centre-left topped the centre-right in a regionwide election.
