Final update: The votes from abroad are in and with these votes Prodi wins also the senate (senato) with a slim majority.

The final numbers of seats are:

Congress: 340 seats for Prodi and 277 for Berlusconi. Senate: 158 for Prodi and 156 for Berlusconi. So, the Center-Left coalition wins both houses and should be able to form a goverment. Prodi will be the next Prime Minister of Italy. Berlusconi is out. For sure. Arriverderci Berlusconi!
