The Pact of Democrats for Reforms (Italian: Patto dei Democratici per le Riforme, PDR) is a regional centrist political party active in Sicily, Italy, led by former minister Salvatore Cardinale,[1] whose daughter is a deputy of the Democratic Party (PD).[2]
The party emerged in July 2014 from the merger of the Reformist Democrats for Sicily, a regional autonomist party, with other minor groups (notably including splinters from Article Four), who supported Rosario Crocetta, a Democrat, as President of Sicily.[3] The PDR was endorsed by the PD's national leadership.[4][5] In October 2015 the party was enlarged to some members of Democratic Sicily (SD) and rebranded Pact of Democrats for Reforms – Future Sicily.[6][7][8][9]
In the 2016 local elections the party obtained substantial results in some medium-sized Sicilian cities: 15.8% in Favara,[10] 14.5% in Canicattì,[11] 14.1% in Barrafranca (where SD took 10.0%),[12] and 9.3% in Alcamo.[13]
