Roll-call voting record
Recorded votes only. Parliament held 6,412 roll-call votes while Francesco Torselli held the seat, 606 of them the final vote on a text. A member with no vote recorded may have been on parliamentary business, ill, on leave, or present without voting - the published record does not distinguish these and gives no reason. Votes taken by show of hands or by secret ballot are not recorded by name and are absent here.
How they voted on final texts
Share of the 606 final votes held while seated.
With and against the group
On the 570 final texts where more than half of ECR members casting a vote went one way, and Francesco Torselli also voted. Groups are not bound to vote together: a Member's mandate is personal and exercised freely, so neither figure is a measure of performance.

Unlinked but matchable
11 counterpart entries in Francesco Torselli's declarations appear to match an EU Transparency Register entry without being linked in the declaration:
- “FiberCop SpA” - likely FiberCop SpA (2 counterpart entries)
- “ADAN” - likely Association pour le Développement des Actifs Numériques (1 counterpart entry)
- “CENTR” - likely CENTR - Council of European Top Level Domain Registries (1 counterpart entry)
These are the 3 most frequent matches, covering 4 of the 11 entries; the other 7 are not listed.
Matching is automated and can be wrong - see how matching works. Linking the register entry is the fix, and it is the MEP office's to make.
