History
The 2019 Democratic Party leadership election had seen the victory of Nicola Zingaretti, who had become Secretary after winning over 66% of the vote. On 4 March 2021, Zingaretti resigned,[1] planning to hand the party's leadership to former Prime Minister Enrico Letta. Letta, who at the time was working in Paris as a university professor, immediately returned to Italy,[2][3] where he was elected Secretary by the National Assembly in a nearly unanimous vote. In his first speech as leader of the Democratic Party, he set out his agenda, which included:
- The formation a broad alliance alongside centre-left and centrist political forces.
- Making it easier for children of immigrants to obtain Italian citizenship.
- Lowering the minimum voting age from 18 to 16.
- The introduction of an anti-defection law.
- An electoral law reform.[4][5][6][7]
