Social Democratic Party of Socialists and Democrats (PSD) Did they think 'Social Democratic Party' was just too amiguous? Social Democratic is just an ideological description, not part of the name. The Party of Socialists and Democrats (Partito dei Socialisti e dei Democratici, PSD) is a 2005 merger of the Partito Socialista Sammarinese (founded in 1892 as the first political party in the country) and the reform Communists in PD (Partito dei Democratici), which were the main heirs to the Communist Party (Partito Comunista di San Marino, PCS). Like in Italy the Communists split (in 1992) between a reformist party and "refoundation" hardliners - in San Marino the Rifondazione Comunista Sammarinese (RCS). In 2006 RCS teamed up with a 2005 splinter group from PD (those who opposed the merger with PSS) to form the United Left (SU) alliance. |

I am a bit fascinated by their insistence on the importance of small ideological differences in what is essentially a municipal polity with a few extra functions, but then again they are Italians.  Though I am sure a lot of the "ideological" feuds, splits and mergers are due to personal rivalries. |

... the Rifondazione Comunista Sammarinese (RCS)... Given the population of San Marino, the number of members this party had must have been absolutely tiny. |

Everything is "tiny" in San Marino, but given that it formed that core of the SU, which is one of the bigger parties, I doubt it was tiny by San Marino standard. |

List of Free Persons (Lista delle Persone Libere) and Sanmarinese Democratic Revival (Rinascita Democratica Sanmarinese) are running independently, which makes the "Democrazia in Movimento" coalition more left leaning/populist and no longer a "united outsiders" alliance.
I suspect MD-SMI is a coalition of non-R.E.T.E. 2012 citizen movement lists, if so Democrazia in Movimento is an alliance of all the protest groups from back then, except Rinascita Democratica Sanmarinese (which were in it originally together with the Libertarians).

With 10 sections out the results may yet change substantially, but so far PSD and the APR-UD alliance are getting clobbered, but I do not know the electoral geography well enough to say if it will hold up (there are always significant variations between the sections). Of the establishment parties the Christian Democrats are so far "only" down about 10%. While the left wing is doing good.

Turnout at 56.7% with 47 of 49 sections reporting. Results not moving much. It looks like all other establishment parties than United Left will lose, some quite badly.

PS nearly three times as big among expats as "internals". PSD also much bigger among expats. The "old left" have emigrated. But United Left about a point higher among internals than expats.
