In the Asturian election, Álvarez Cascos led the party under the name "Forum of Citizens" (Spanish: Foro de Ciudadanos). FAC won sixteen seats, making it the largest party on the General Council. Together with the PP, FAC's gains gave the centre-right a majority in Asturias for the first time.[7] The party has spoken to all three other parties to create a more consensual political climate.[8]
After months of deadlock in the Asturian regional assembly, fresh elections were held, in which FAC lost 4 seats, becoming the second largest party behind the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE).
On 12 February 2015, Francisco Álvarez-Cascos surprisingly announced he would not stand again as Asturias Forum's candidate and resigned the presidency of the party.[9] Álvarez-Cascos was succeeded by Cristina Coto, while he went on to become the party's secretary-general.
After the resignation of Cristina Coto due to differences with Álvarez Cascos, Carmen Moriyón, mayoress of Gijón, was elected new president of the party on 29 September 2018.[10]
