Party of the Chameria

The Party of the Chameria (Albanian: Partia e Çamërisë, Greek: Κόμμα της Τσαμουρίας) was a small, short-lived political party in Greece, which aimed to represent the Cham Albanians in the Greek Parliament. It was created by Ali Dino, a famous Prevezan cartoonist and MP.

1926 elections

The party took part only in the 1926 general elections, gathering 1,539 votes from the Preveza and Ioannina prefectures.[1] In the subsequent elections, the party did not gain the support of the local Albanian population and Ali Dino ran under Farmer-Labor ticket, gaining only 67 votes in 1932.[1]
