History edit

The party was founded in September 2009 by the lawyer Massimo Romano, former member of Italy of Values.[1] In 2011 Romano ran in the primary elections to choose the centre-left candidate for president, which Frattura later won.[2] In the 2011 Molise regional election, Building Democracy, within the centre-left coalition, won 4.23% of the vote and one seat (assigned to Romano).

The party took part in the 2013 Italian general election, obtaining only 2,635 votes for the Senate. In the same year, it also took part in the 2013 Molise regional election within a coalition of civic lists,[3] obtaining 5.07% of the vote and one seat (assigned, in this occasion, to Filippo Monaco).[4]

After a period of inactivity, Building Democracy participates again in the 2023 Molise regional election,[5][6] within the centre-left coalition, obtaining 5.73% of the votes and one seat (won by the leader Massimo Romano).[7]
