Italy's opposition center-left Democratic Party picked Elly Schlein, a 37-year-old U.S.-Italian national who grew up in Switzerland, to be its new leader and rebuild the group after its election rout last year

Schlein worked on former U.S. President Barack Obama's campaign team in 2008 and 2012 and has been compared in the Italian media to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic politician from New York, for her unexpected rise and activist zeal.

"The democratic people are alive and are ready to rise up. This a clear mandate for real change," Schlein said on Sunday night. "We will put the battle against every type of inequality and precariousness centre stage." Bonaccini is president of the wealthy region of Emilia-Romagna and promoted himself as a sound administrator. Polls suggested he would easily beat Schlein, but in the end he only drew strong backing in the more traditionalist south.
