Lega Romagna

In May 2012 Gianluca Pini, who was a staunch supporter of the new federal secretary Roberto Maroni, was re-elected national secretary with the support of 91% of party delegates during a national congress.[5][6]

In the 2014 regional election the joint list of LNE and LNR obtained its best result so far in a regionwide election (19.4%).[7]

In October 2015 Jacopo Morrone was elected secretary to succeed to Pini,[8][9] who was later installed as president.

In the 2019 European Parliament election the party obtained 33.8%, its best result ever. In the 2020 Emilia-Romagna regional election LNE's Lucia Borgonzoni posed the strongest challenge so far to the dominant PD, but stopped at 43.6% and was defeated, while the League's list obtained 32.0%.

Following the formation of Lega per Salvini Premier and 2019 federal congress of the LN, after which the latter became practically inactive, in February 2020 the LNR was re-established as Lega Romagna per Salvini Premier in order to become the regional section of the new party. The founding members of the new LR were Morrone, Elena Raffaelli and Lorenzo Martino.[10][11][12] Subsequently, Andrea Liverani replaced Morrone as leader of the party, in charge as commissioner.[13][14][15] A few months later Morrone returned to the helm, while Pini was launching legal challenges to reinstate the old party.[16][17][18]

In June 2023, during a party congress, Morrone was unanimously elected secretary.[19][20][21]

Lega Nord was usually stronger in the outer provinces, both in Emilia and Romagna. In the 2019–2020 elections (European Parliament and Regional Council, respectively) it did better in the provinces of Piacenza (45.3% and 44.0%), Parma (38.8% and 36.5%), Ferrara (41.9% and 41.9%) and Rimini (36.5% and 34.5%).
