Dario De Luca (born 26 July 1956) is an Italian politician. A member of the right-wing party Brothers of Italy, De Luca was elected mayor of Potenza on 8 June 2014 and took office on 23 June 2014. He was the first right-wing mayor of Potenza, the first to come from the centre-right coalition, and the first Brothers of Italy member to become mayor of a regional capital in Italy. Despite this, he was able to attract the support of the opposition, having to rely on them to have a majority in the city council. In early 2015, De Luca initially resigned but soon retracted after gaining support in the city council. He did not run for re-election in 2019.
