The Five Star Movement maybe leading in the polls, but they will likely fall short of a majority. The far-right party of Matteo Salvini - which bitterly opposes immigration and has promised to expel migrants en masse - has a better shot at power. Salvini's party - The League - is part of a rightwing coalition led by former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi which pollsters say has the best chance of securing a working majority. But, with around a third of the electorate still undecided, Sunday's vote is far from certain. CGTN's Kate Parkinson has been out on the streets of Rome to find out how the people will be casting their votes.
