Lega Nord Romagna (English: Northern League Romagna, LNR) is a regionalist political party in Italy active in the Romagna.
The LNR is one of the two "national" (regional) sections of Lega Nord in Emilia-Romagna, the other being Lega Nord Emilia (LNE), and proposes the separation of Romagna from Emilia and, thus, the establishment of the Region of Romagna.[1] For now it has campaigned with some success for the "return" of Romagnol municipalities of northern Marche to Romagna.[2]
Recent istory
Gianluca Pini has served as the party's national secretary since 1999 and has represented the party in Parliament since 2006.
In May 2012 Pini was re-elected with the support of 91% of party delegates of the national congress.[3][4]
In the 2014 regional election the joint list of LNE and LNR obtained its best result ever in a regionwide election (19.4%).[5]
Popular support
Lega Nord is usually less strong in Romagna than Emilia. However, in the 2014 regional election the party scored quite good results in the three Romagnol provinces: 20.1% in Ravenna, 20.0% in Forlì-Cesena and 17.9% in Rimini.
The combined electoral results of Lega Nord Emilia and Lega Nord Romagna in Emilia-Romagna are shown in the table below.
