History

Més per Menorca gained three deputies in the Balearic elections of 2015, being the third most voted party of the island in those elections (after the PP and the Socialist Party).[4] In the local elections held the same day, the coalition only presented a list in Ciutadella de Menorca, where it gained six town councillors and the mayorship. In the remaining municipalities of the island, Més per Menorca either participated or supported other local coalitions.

In October 2016, the Més per Menorca coalition proposed and carried a motion to adopt permanent Summer Time on the island.[5]

In May 2017, Més per Menorca was transformed into a party, electing Nel Martí as its coordinator.[6]
