Democratic Centre Coalition ( Spanish: Coalición de Centro Democrático, sometimes translated as the Coalition of the Democratic Centre) is a centrist and liberal political party in Spain, founded in 2010 by members of the former Democratic and Social Centre (CDS). Before 2016 the party was called Citizens of Democratic Centre ( Spanish: Ciudadanos de Centro Democrático).

History

The party was founded in 2010 by David García Pérez, ex-leader of the Youth of the CDS. In the local elections of 2011 CCD gained 20 town councillors and 1 mayor in Domingo Pérez ( Province of Toledo).

In April 2012, and after identifying various irregularities in the Town Council of Domingo Pérez, CCD decided to take the case to the anti-corruption Prosecutor's Office, denounced the case in the media and expelled the Mayor from the town. CCD also denounced irregularities in the government of the previous mayor of the municipality ( PP).

In the European elections of 2014 CCD didn't run and endorsed Citizens (C's). In the local elections of 2015 CCD won 50 town councillors and 4 mayors. The leader of the party, David García, became the mayor of Nules ( Province of Castellón). ^[2] In December 2016 the party changed its name to the current Democratic Centre Coalition. ^[3]
