Early political career
Renzi's political aspirations started in high school. Renzi was one of the founders of the committee in favor of Romano Prodi's appointment as Prime Minister of Italy in 1996; the same year, he joined the centrist Italian People's Party (PPI) and became the country's provincial secretary in 1999. He also married Agnese Landini, with whom he later had three children. Renzi joined Francesco Rutelli's Daisy party in 2001, which was made up of members of the disbanded PPI.
Renzi was elected president of Florence, Italy, with 59% of the vote on June 13th as the candidate of the centre-left coalition. He was the youngest man to head an Italian province. Renzi expressed his opposition to "the political caste" during his reign as president of Florence, Italy, and reduced taxes and reduced the number of employees and managers during his mandate.
Renzi, the president of Florence province, has announced that he will run for mayor of Florence after five years as the president of Florence province. Renzi, who now a member of the Democratic Party (PD), won the second round vote with 60% of the vote, up from 40% for his opponent Giovanni Galli. As the mayor, he halved the number of city councillors, installed 500 free WiFi access points around the city, reduced kindergarten waiting lists by 90%, and increased spending on social care and schools.
Renzi called a public meeting with another young party leader, Debora Serracchiani, at Leopolda Station in Florence, one year after being sworn in as mayor and with his national opinion polls increasing, to address Italian politics. Matteo Richetti, president of Emilia-Romagna's Regional Council, Davide Faraone, a regional councillor from the Sicilian Regional Assembly, and Giuseppe Civati, a key member of the PD in Lombardy and a member of the Regional Council of Lombardy, were among the many prominent members of Renzi's program.
Renzi was given the nickname il rottamatore ("The Scrapper" or "The Wrecker") after this public meeting in August 2010. Renzi hosted his second public meeting in October 2011, this time in Florence, where he also wrote down one hundred topics of discussion. During this period, he began to be blasted by other members of his party's closest to then-PD Secretary Pier Luigi Bersani, after his suggestion that Italian politicians of the same generation as then-Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi should step down. Renzi declared in September 2012 that he would lead the center-left coalition in the 2013 Italian general election; the other four contenders for the position were Pier Luigi Bersani, the deputy prime minister of Veneto and Bruno Tabacci, leader of the Democratic Centre, and Laura Puppato, one of the Veneto and Bruno Tabacci. Several influential PD members and the party's left sluggishly attacked his candidacy, including Rosy Bindi, Massimo D'Alema, Stefano Fassina, and Vendola.
Renzi gained 35.5% of the vote in the first round of the 2012 Italian center-left primary election, placing second behind Bersani and qualifying for the second round. Renzi gained a total of 39% of the vote, compared to Bersani's 61%. Renzi rallied in Florence during the 2013 general election campaign, assisting Bersani in staging large public rallies. Despite opinion polls showing the party at nearly 30%, the PD gained only 5 percent of the vote in the general election. Renzi caused only minor controversy by openly condemning both Franco Marini and Anna Finocchiaro, two long-serving PD candidates, in the 2013 Italian presidential election.
Renzi declared in April that he would contest the position of secretary of the Democratic Party (PD), causing his rivals to scrutinize him. Bersani's leadership skills were questioned by party members because of the PD's departures. Renzi's impressive resume at such a young age, as well as his reputation as a political outsider thanks to his "Scrapper" moniker, made him a popular candidate. Former political adversaries, including former party secretaries Walter Veltroni and Dario Franceschini, deputy Marina Sereni, member of the European Parliament and Turin mayor Piero Fassino, were among his supporters, including former Torin mayor Piero Fassino. Gianni Pietro Dal Moro, Francesco Sanna, Lorenzo Basso, Lorenzo Basso, and Enrico Borghi were among his supporters, many of whom were close to newly elected Prime Minister Enrico Letta.
Gianni Cuperlo, a member of the Chamber of Deputies and former minister of the Italian Communist Youth Federation, and Giuseppe Civati, a left-wing-oriented deputy from Lombardy and a former Renzi supporter, were among the other two candidates for party secretary. Renzi received 68% of the popular vote in the 2013 PD leadership race, compared to 18% for Cuperlo and 14% for Civati. He was both the new PD secretary and the potential candidate for Prime Minister of Italy's center-left coalition. Renzi shifted to the left in the 2012 center-left primary election, and his audience was not significantly different from that of the party's average primary.
Prime Minister Letta, who had been the vice-secretary of the opposition under Bersani's leadership, applauded Renzi's appointment. Several reports of ongoing leadership conflicts between Renzi and Prime Minister Letta emerged between January and February 2014. Many believed Renzi was pressuring Letta to resign in his favour, claiming that he should be given the opportunity to serve as the PD's leader. Letta confirmed these rumors for the first time on Tuesday, demanding Renzi to clarify his position. Renzi called a meeting of the PD leadership for the following evening. Renzi had called on Letta to resign immediately and allow him to form a new government right before the meeting took place. Letta denied the request at first; following a vote in favour of Renzi's plan during the meeting, which Letta did not attend, he resigned as Prime Minister on February 14th.
The PD officially joined the Party of European Socialists (PES) as a full member under Renzi's leadership on February 28, 2014.
