1860 plebiscites organized in Italy for half express the popular will of annexation to Piedmont. The then chief of police policy admits falsifying results. Death threat to printers that print the cards were contrary to the annexation. A real scam.

must say that the story of the unification of Italy built by the Savoy and the Liberals, in the name of the Constitution and freedom, has been well told. And even better repeated. The people - they said (and continues to repeat) - "groaned" under the yoke of papal and Bourbon misrule. The people, therefore, were freed and Victor Emmanuel was there ready for the occasion. Strong heart and noble, the King of Sardinia would moved only because it touched by the crying of those (all Italians) who rightly aspire to a life as free men and not slaves. This legend, I said, has been touted with care. Sin is fundamentally false. Prior to invade (without declaring war, and always denying, as in the South, its direct participation in the company) one after the other Italian States, the Piedmont-Sardinian government has ensured that future " spontaneous uprising "in favor of the Savoy. It was the proper name of the King of Savoy in front of Italian public opinion and foreign.
He writes Joseph Farina, right arm of Cavour, In a letter to Philip Bartholomew: "It is necessary that the work is started by the people: the Piedmont will be called, but never before. If it did, you would cry to win, and you would shoot on European coalition. " King Vittorio Emanuele - continued - said: "I can not lay my dictatorship on the people who do not m'invocano, neck and stars give quiet diplomacy excuse to say I'm happy with the government that they have.
