History
editPolitical Action was founded in 2017 by Gianluca Zelli.[2]
In 2019, the party took part in the regional election in Abruzzo among the ranks of the centre-right coalition, in support of the candidacy of Marco Marsilio,[3] getting 3.24% of the vote and one seat.[4] Following the election, AP was excluded from the regional government, provoking the anger of Zelli, who resigned as coordinator of the party.[5] However, the resignations returned a few days later, following a request from the regional coordination of the party.[6]
In the 2020 local elections, the party took part in the municipal election of Chieti, in a coalition of civic lists in support of Paolo De Cesare, scoring just 1.63% of the vote. In the ballot it supported the candidate of the centre-left, Diego Ferrara, and won one seat.[7]
In occasion of the 2023 local elections, the party announced to support the candidacy of Maria Cristina Marroni for Mayor of Teramo.[8]
On the occasion of the 2024 regional election in Abruzzo, AP reached an electoral agreement with the League.[9]
