The DemoKRats (I DemoKRatici, DKR) are a centrist Italian political party, based in Calabria.

The party was founded by Enzo Sculco, a former regional councillor of Democracy is Freedom – The Daisy from the province of Crotone (KR, hence the name of the party).[1][2] In the 2014 European Parliament election the DKR supported Giuseppe Scopelliti,[3] who had resigned a few months earlier from President of Calabria after his conviction for abuse of power and was running for the New Centre-Right, but Scopelliti was not elected.

In the 2014 regional election the party formed a joint list with the Italian Republican Party, Alliance for Italy, Autonomy South and other minor parties in support of Mario Oliverio, the Democratic candidate for president. The list won 5.2% of the vote (15.4% in Crotone)[4] and Flora Sculco, daughter of Enzo, was elected to the Regional Council.
