Lega Nord Umbria (English: "Northern League Umbria") is a regionalist political party in Italy which is the "national" (hence, regional) section of Lega Nord in Umbria. Since 2018 the party has been led by Virginio Caparvi.[1][2]
Recent history
In the 2010 Umbrian regional election the party obtained 4.3% and entered the Regional Council for the first time with a regional councillor[3], while in 2015 it obtained 14.0% and, despite a reduction of the Council's numbers, two councillors.[4]
In the 2018 general election the party won 20.2% of the vote regionally[5] and in the subsequent municipal election Leonardo Latini, a leghista, was elected mayor of Terni, the region's second largest city.[6]
Popular support
The party is a tiny one among the national sections of the LN, but it is recently gaining clout.
