History

Political 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]
