Elly Schlein Elected as Secretary of Italy's Partito Democratico

Schlein Becomes First Woman to Lead Italian Center-Left Party

Current leader Elly Schlein has tacked left since winning the election

Partito Democratico PD, a social-democratic political party in Italy, has elected Elly Schlein as its new secretary. Schlein, who is the first woman to lead the Italian center-left party, faces a challenging task as the party tries to recover from a dramatic election defeat.

The PD lost many strongholds in the recent legislative election, and its current leader, Elly Schlein, has been tacking left since winning the election. Schlein has promised to make the PD a more progressive and inclusive party, and her election is seen as a sign that the party is trying to move away from its centrist past.

However, Schlein's election is also seen as a gamble. Some analysts believe that her left-wing views could alienate moderate voters and further divide the PD. Only time will tell whether Schlein's leadership will be successful in reviving the PD's fortunes.
