In the 2006 general elections, the party won 1.59% of the legislative vote, gaining one seat in the legislature. In 2010, the party surged to 9.17% of the vote, winning four seats in the legislature and entering into coalition with the governing National Liberation Party.
In 2012, members of the party assumed the congressional roles of president, vice president and first secretary after striking a deal with the majority National Liberation Party.[1]
In 2013, the party proposed a bill that would sanction businesses and public places that did not comply with accessibility standards.[2] In October 2013, party member Óscar Andrés López Arias's statement that there was "thin line between consent and rape" drew criticism from feminists.[3]
In 2014, the party's vote fell to 3.95%, and it lost all but one of its seats. In the next election, party's support dropped even further gaining only 0.38% and losing its only seat.
